In this study, widespread resistance of T. congolense infections in East Highland Zebu cattle at Ghibe, southwest Ethiopia, to all available trypanocidal drugs has been demonstrated. Changes in incidence of T. congolense infections in cattle 36 months and more of age sampled between 1994 and 1997...

Detecting resistance of trypanosomal infection to diminazene aceturate - a possible field test?
Eleven groups of male cattle (39 on average per group) were monitored for presence of trypanosomes at 3-weekly intervals for periods of up to 27 weeks at a feedlot of Ferkessedougou, northern Cote d'Ivoire, in an area supposedly free of tsetse. All animals originated from or grazed during transhu...
Twelve traditional herds of cattle in the area of Boundiali, northern Cote d'Ivoire, were examined monthly from 1990 to 1992 for the presence of trypanosomes. The herds were randomised into 3 treatment groups, cattle in 4 herds received diminazene aceturate at 3.5 or 7 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) wh...

Interet de la detection des antigenes circulants specifiques dans la mise en evidence et la characterisation des trypanosomes animaux en Afrique central
The trypanosome surface coat is composed almost entirely of a homogeneous array of molecules known as variable surface glycoproteins (VSG). These molecules are highly immunogenic and elicit a strong antibody response in the infected host. Antibodies against the surface-exposed epitopes of a parti...

Characterisation of a Trypanosoma (Nannomonas) Conglense-specific antigen: identification as a thiol protease precursor.
African trypanosomosis is characterized by the profound suppression of the hosts' immune system and Cylophilin (Cyp) proteins have been implicated. Previous research findings have attributed the immunosuppression observed to a Trypanosome Immunosuppressive Fraction (TISF) which shows suppressive,...
