African animal trypanosomosis (nagana) is arguably the most important parasitic disease affecting livestock in sub-Saharan Africa. Since none of the existing control measures are entirely satisfactory, vaccine development is being actively pursued. However, due to antigenic variation, the quest f...

Control of trypanosomosis in cattle, sheep and goats in endemic areas has depended largely on the use of chemotherapeutic or chemoprophylactic agents. One such agent is homidium. The normal use of homidium has been in the treatment of infections due to both Trypanosoma congolense and T. vivax in ...

Drug resistance in trypanosomes is increasingly being recognised as a constraint to livestock production in many parts of Africa. However the long-term stability of such resistance is unclear and has therefore been investigated over a 4-year period at a site in Ethiopia. The result shows that the...

Trypanosomosis remains one of the biggest impediments to the Development of the livestock industry in sub-Saharan Africa while it is likely that a vaccine for this disease could be found in the future, none is presently available. Mean-while different strategies are being followed to control this...

Chemotherapy is the single most important strategy for the control of trypanosomosis in African livestock. Trypanocidal drug resistance is a growing problem across much of sub-Saharan Africa and increasingly recognised as a major threat to livestock production. It is therefore of pressing importa...

The FAO/IAEA Trypanosomiasis Direct Antigen-ELISA kit has been distributed to scientists holding research contracts under an IAEA Co-ordinated Research Programme in 14 sub-Saharan African countries. It is intended for improved diagnosis of bovine tsetse-transmitted trypanosomiasis as an aid to e...

C57BL/6J mice are relatively resistant to trypanosomosis compared to BALB/c or A/J mice. Bloodstream trypanosomes are partly dependent on the host for lipid supply and the plasma lipid levels differ between resistant and susceptible mice. Furthermore, genes controlling plasma lipid levels are dif...
