African trypanosomes contain cysteine proteases (ttypanopains) the activity of which can be measured by in vitro digestion of fibrinogen, after electophoresis in fibrinogen-containing SDS/polyacrylamide gels. When assessed by this procedure, trypanopain from Trypanosoma brucei (trypanopain-Tb) is...

Two colonies of glossina pallidipes originating from the Shimba Hills and Nguruman, Kenya, were examined for their susceptibility to two strains of Trypanosoma congolense and for allele frequencies at eight polymorphic loci. These data were compared with data from earlier studies of these colonie...

Trypanosoma vivax is transmitted to domestic livestock by tsetse flies (Glossina spp.) after cyclical development in the vector (cyclical transmission) as well as directly (mechanical transmission) by other bloodsucking insects such as horse-flies and stable-flies (Hoare, 1947; Wells, 1972). Thus...

Two groups of five Boran (Bos indicus) cattle were infected with one of two populations of Trypanosoma congolense; one drug-sensitive (IL1180), and one drug-resistant (IL3330). The animals were then treated intramuscularly with homidium bromide at a dose rate of 1.0 mg kg - bodyweight 7 days afte...
