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...
In a cross-sectional study carried out in June 1994, 486 cattle from 50 randomly selected dairy farms in the vicinity of Kampala, Uganda, were examined for trypanosome infections. The trypanosome prevalence (either positive with the haematocrit centrifugation technique [HCT] and/or the mini-anion...
Control of trypanosomes 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 cat...

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...
Characterising the drug susceptibility of trypanosomes that are pathogenic for domestic livestock has for many years been carried out either in vivo, using large or small animals, or by using various in vitro cultivation methodologies (Peregrine, 1994). Thus, adaptation to, and multiplication of ...
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...
Trypanocidal drugs are the most widely applied method of trypanosomosis control in Africa and the only control method in Latin America and Asia . Treatment recommendations and strategies for chemotherapeutic control of trypanosomosis depends on information of trypanosomosis risk and the prevalenc...
