Methods for determining the efficacy of animal health interventions involving vector-borne diseases when the intervention attempts to control the vector itself are described. There are a number of possibilities. For example, a before/after study can be undertaken when data collected following the...

Tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis affects cattle production over approximately 10 million km2 of Africa. In these areas, trypanocidal drugs, both prophylactic and curative, are the most widely used methods of trypanosomosis control. However, resistance of trypanosomes to the 3 trypanocidal drugs ...

Host ability to control the Development of trypanosomes is a major component of trypanotolerance. However, practical indicators of the parasite control capability have still to be identified as they rely on the availability of more precise diagnostic techniques that could be carried out at the fa...

In this study, the efficacies of three trypanocidal drugs, diminazene aceturate, isometamidium chloride and homidium bromide, were evaluated in four representative areas of Cote d'Ivoire with different production systems, degree of integration of different trypanosomosis control approaches and de...

The identification and tracking of sub-populations through time and space are critical to fully understanding the epidemiology of parasitic diseases. However, very little is known about the structure, distribution and dynamics of trypanosome populations in the field. Most laboratory studies that ...

Reports the feeding preferences of Glossina species at sites of the African Trypanotolerant Livestock Network. Estimates tsetse challenge and relates the results with trypanosome prevalence in cattle. Examines the relationship between tsetse challenge using linear regression analysis. Also examin...

Earlier research had provided clear indications of an ability of N'Dama cattle to acquire, over time, some control of the Development of parasitaemia following a T. vivax infection but not apparently, following a T. congolense infection. The objective of this study is to further assess the import...

The extent and significance of trypanocidal drug resistance was investigated in priority areas of three East and Southern African Countries under a project. The project was built on the results of two previous projects. Existing methods currently available for the demonstration of drug-resistance...

Advances in biotechnological techniques are driven by the needs of the human populations. The new techniques in biotechnology have been developed as a consequence of the integrated use of microbiology, biochemistry and chemical engineering. Some of these technologies are being employed in the der...
