Testing of trypanocidal drug sensitivity in stabilates of pathogenic trypanosomes derived from cattle continues to be problematic, in spite of Development of in vitro techniques, since these are generally complicated and costly for the resources available in developing country laboratories. Furth...

A simplified cost-effective method for area-wide testing of trypanocidal drug sensitivity of T. congolense in mice
Resistance to the drugs used to control African animal trypanosomosis is increasingly recognised as a constraint to livestock production in sub-Saharan Africa. The most commonly used tests for detection of trypanocidal drug resistance are tests using mice or ruminants, but these suffer from lack ...

Standardised tests in mice and cattle for the detection of drug resistance in tsetse-transmitted trypanosomes of African domestic cattle
Besides the in vitro test, two tests are very commonly used for the detection of trypanocidal drug resistance: the tests in mice and in ruminants. Since it has been shown that several parameters such as the number of trypanosomes inoculated and the time of treatment might influence the outcome of...
