The infection-and-treatment method (ITM) for immunization of cattle against East Coast fever has historically been used only on a limited scale because of logistical and policy constraints. Recent large-scale deployment among pastoralists in Tanzania has stimulated demand. Concurrently, a suite o...

Live immunization against East Coast fever - current status
Improvement of the livestock industry in many developing countries has been severely constrained by tick-borne diseases. The major protozoan pathogens responsible for these diseases in cattle are Theileria parva and B. annulata and Babesia bigemina and B. bovis. East Coast fever is of great econo...

Subunit vaccines for the control of Theileria parva
The preparation of Theileria parva stabilates has been described by Cunningham et al (1973). The method is detailed in the FAO report (1978) and the FAO tick and tick-borne Disease Manual (1984). Theileria parva stabilates are a source of viable sporozoites that can be used to immunise cattle by ...

The preparation of a composite stabilate for immunisation against East Coast fever
The aim of this workshop was to consider methods of immunisation against East Coast Fever (ECF) and other forms of T. parva infection using the infection and treatment method or infection without treatment, and to identify needs for further research to improve vaccine quality and suitability; to ...

Live vaccines for Theileria parva: deployment in eastern, Central and Southern Africa. Proceedings of an FAO/OAU-IBAR/ILRI workshop
The primary goals of applying molecular tools, developed at ILRI in conjunction with the use of infection and treatment immunisation are quality control of vaccines; monitoring of possible vaccine breakthrough and breakdown; and assessment of the impact of introducing new parasite types on long-t...
