The
hemoflagellate protozoan, Trypanosoma cruzi, mainly transmitted by triatomine insects through blood transfusion or from mother-to-child, causes Chagas' disease.
These insects are vectors of the
hemoflagellate protozoa Trypanosoma cruzi and responsible for the transmission of Chagas disease, also known as American trypanosomiasis.
Crithidia lucilia is a
hemoflagellate protozoa that has an organelle called a kinetoplast which contains a high-concentration native double-stranded DNA.

Chagas disease, a zoonosis caused by the
hemoflagellate protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, remains a serious health problem in many Latin American countries, where it is an endemic disease that affects approximately 10 million people (Rassi et al.
This parasitic disease is caused by Trypanosoma cruzi (family, Trypanosomatidae and order, Kinetoplastida), a
hemoflagellate protozoa [3], which can be found on several strains with different mechanisms of pathogenesis, immunogenicity, treatment response, and epidemiology [4].

American trypanosomiasis (AT) also known as Chagas' disease is a neglected infectious disease caused by the

Chagas disease or American trypanosomiasis is caused by the
hemoflagellate protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi Chagas, which was identified by the Brazilian physician Carlos R.
African Trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness) is caused by Trypanosoma brucei, a
hemoflagellate protozoan parasite, transmitted to human by an insect vector Tsetse fly (Glossina spp) found in some parts of rural Africa.
