Cattle from 50 farms in Mukono County, Uganda, were monitored for trypanosomes every second month over an 18-month period (1995–1996) by mini-anion exchange chromatography and haematocrit centrifugation techniques. Eighteen trypanosome isolates collected from cattle during this period were charac...

Drug sensitivity of trypanosome populations from cattle in a peri-urban dairy production system in Uganda
This study assessed the degree of isometamidium resistance of trypanosomes infecting cattle in the upper Didessa valley of western Ethiopia. An initial prevalence study was conducted to identify sites with a high risk of trypanosmosis in cattle. The trypanosome prevalence varied widely, with t...

Nagana, a vector-borne epizootic caused by trypanosomes, severely constrains the use of draught animals in the cotton zone of south-eastern Mali. The disease causes considerable economic losses for the local farmers due to high mortality and morbidity ensuing productivity losses. Nagana is routin...
