Summary

Automatically generated

We describe a high-throughput colorimetric assay measuring β-galactosidase activity in three life cycle stages of Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease. This assay can be used to identify trypanocidal compounds in an easy, fast, and reproducible manner.
