Abstract Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular bacteria that cause zoonotic and human diseases. Arthropod vectors, such as fleas, mites, ticks, and lice, transmit rickettsiae to vertebrates during blood meals. In humans, the disease can be life threatening. This study was conducted amidst rising...
A gene, TvHT1, encoding a glucose transporter protein, has been cloned from the haemoflagellate protozoon, Trypanosoma vivax, which has an active Kreb's cycle in the mammalian stage. The deduced polypeptide is similar in amino acid sequence to other kinetoplastid hexose transporters from Trypanos...

The field studies reported in this thesis on epidemiology and chemotherapy of Trypanosoma evansi in camels were conducted for a period of 18 months on two herds of camels located at Ngurunit and Olturot, in Marsabit District, Northern Kenya. In this area, camels provide subsistence for a nomadic ...
