Technical advances in the continuous cultivation of trypanosomes have enabled the Development of in vitro drug screening techniques. Using the mammalian feeder layer cell system for cultivation of infective haematozoic trypomastigotes of Trypanosoma brucei brucei, significant differences in the s...

An epidemiological study of recurrent trypanosome infection in East African Zebu cattle and its association with drug resistance
Trypanosomosis is an endemic disease in cattle in Mukono District in south eastern Uganda. A multi-disciplinary project was formulated in order to better understand the infection dynamics, and drug sensitivities, of the trypanosome parasites prevalent in Mukono, and also to assess the economic im...

This Report compares the efficacies of three anthelmintics, each belonging to one of the broad spectrum groups. It also identifies the genera of resistant worms through larval culture. The study was conducted on a commercial farm where anthelmintics had been used intensively. The results show cle...

Evidence for multiple anthelmintic resistance of gastrointestinal nematodes in sheep in coastal Kenya
Trypanosomiasis in man and domestic animals in Africa is discussed with particular reference to the complexity and economics of the disease and the effectiveness of current methods of control.
It is useful to be able to estimate the incidence of new infections in cattle exposed to a high challenge of drug resistance trypanosomes; with this information the impact of an intervention that improves the control of trypanosomosis can be better understood. Approximately 750 Ethiopian Highland...

Animal trypanosomosis is particularly important in Ethipia where 7-10 million cattle are at risk. A geo-referenced census of over 5000 households was conducted between March and July 1996 to better understand factors affecting demand of the a cypermethrin pour-ons used since January 1991 to contr...
