Abstract：
:Two neolignans, burchellin and nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), were toxic only to Trypanosoma cruzi clone Dm28c maintained in brain heart infusion (BHI) medium at a concentration of 100 microg/ml, not 10 microg/ml. When Rhodnius prolixus was fed with epimastigotes of T. cruzi and treated simultaneously with a single dose of burchellin or NDGA at 10 pg/ml of blood meal the number of parasites in the gut decreased. Whereas burchellin was only partially active, NDGA drastically reduced the number of epimastigotes and metacyclic trypomastigotes of T. cruzi in the excreta (urine plus feces). When the insect larvae were pretreated with burchellin or NDGA at 20 days before the infection with T. cruzi a significant reduction in the number of parasites in the gut occurred. However, when both compounds were applied at 20 days after the establishment of T. cruzi infection, although burchellin significantly reduced the gut infection, neither compound could abolish the infection entirely within the subsequent 15 days.
