A study conducted to assess the efficacy of chemoprophylaxis for the improvement of the health and productivity of East African Zebu village cattle exposed to trypanosomiasis. Examines the cost-effectiveness of the treatment. Includes data on calf pre-weaning health and weight traits, weight tra...
Reports the viability, reproduction and associated growth rates achieved by grade Boran cattle maintained by chemoprophylaxis at Mkwaja Ranch in Tanzania, over the ten years, from 1973 to 1983.
Examines the genetic basis of trypanotolerance with particular reference to Africa, environmental factors which can influence its stability like age, stress (work, pregnancy etc.), nutrition and disease, and the possible mechanisms responsible; looks at the tyrpanotolerance of different breeds.
This review of the prospects for developing an immunization procedure against trypanosomiasis explores a number of promising avenues of research. Part I covers variable antigen types (VATs); metacyclic antigens; in vivo and in vitro attenuation; and molecular and genetic engineering. Part II, to ...
Reviews prospects of vaccination against African trypanosomiasis, mentioning constraints in developing a vaccine, and current knowledge on the molecular biology of the trypanosome and on antigenic variation with respect to possible future vaccines. Describes possible regimes for immunological int...
Discusses trypanotolerance in cattle and prospects for the control of trypanosomiasis by selective breeding in Africa. Looks into methods available for control including tsetse control, drugs & vaccination and discusses constraints that limit the control. Also discusses prospects for future contr...
During this century livestock production has increased massively through the improved ability to diagnose, treat, control and prevent certain diseases. Despite these advances, disease remains a major constraint to livestock production and welfare throughout the world. In many instances, this is a...
