Comparação entre o reagente Chagas-latex e a imunofluorescência no diagnóstico sorológico da doença de Chagas na zona sul do Rio Grande do Sul

142 serum samples from acute and ehronic Chagas Disease, diagnosed by Chagas-Latex Reagent, were examined by Imunofluorescence. Results of both Imunofiuorescence and Chagas-Latex were in concordance in 139 (97,9%). The high concordance rate between the two technics, praibably depending from the absence in the region of endemic diseases causing false positive results, leads to the conclusion that Chagas-Latex Reagent is a simple and easy test for sorological trials in endemic Chagas Disease area
