Isometamidium chloride is the most important chemoprophylactic agent used in the control of African bovine trypanosomiasis, although breakdowns in prophylaxis have been observed in the field. It is not usually apparent whether these breakdowns are due to inadequate drug dosage regimens, or to the...

A study was undertaken to compare the absorption and distribution of the antitrypanosomal drug diminazene aceturate in plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and lymph of goats. The study comprised three groups of three goats each. Animals in each group were treated with a single intramuscular dose of...

Isometamidium chloride (Samorin, Trypanidium is a phenanthridine-aromatic amidine that is commonly used in cattle as a prophylactic agent against trypanosomiasis. Although the compound has been used for over 30 years, very little is known about its mode of action. Various workers have demonstrate...

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...
