Introduction: In recent years, the use of food supplements like coadjuvants in the
treatment of various diseases has increased; being one of the most studied and
consumed the algae Spirulina maxima, which possesses important demonstrated
biological effects including antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities.
Objective: This study sought to determine if there is a direct link between these two
pharmacological mechanisms in models of acute and chronic inflammation in vivo using
a trademark of Spirulina powder.

The genus Phytomonas includes parasites that are etiological agents of important
plant diseases, especially in Central and South America. These parasites are
transmitted to plants by an infected phytophagous hemipteran bite. The existence of
shared antigens between pathogenic and non-pathogenic trypanosomatids opened
the possibility that species non-infectious to humans, who are economically feasible
and easy to culture at large scale, could be potentially useful as antigen sources for
immunization to Chagas disease.
