Morphological visualization during co-infection of primary macrophage cell cultures by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). In co-infected macrophages, populations of T. gondii partially replicated in host cells which also stained positive for E. tenella. Nuclei of macrophages are stained blue (DAPI), T. gondii RH-GFP appear green and E. tenella Houghton-YFP red. a Cell culture co-infected with T. gondii and E. tenella at 24 hpi. b Cell culture co-infected with T. gondii and E. tenella at 48 hpi. White arrow: macrophage nuclei; yellow arrowhead: T. gondii tachyzoites; yellow arrow: E. tenella sporozoites or meronts
