African animal trypanosomiasis constaints the production of milk, meat and animal traction across much of sub-Saharan Africa. The tsetse-transmitted disease is particularly important in Ethiopia where at least six million cattle are exposed to the disease. In 1000 a trypanosomiasis control progra...

The current control strategies for tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis in cattle (trypanocidal drugs tsetse control and trypanotolerant cattle) are briefly reviewed and their adoption rates in different geographic regions of sub-Saharan Africa are presented. The impact of these control strategies a...

Data on approximately 4,000 head of N'Dama cattle kept in 60 herds under traditional management systems in The Gambia were analysed to estimate annual herd offtake rates during a 5 year period (1986-1990). Farm-gate sale prices and weight at sale of 428 cattle were analysed by least-squares ANOVA...

Blood samples were collected during the rainy and dry season months from a total of 247 traditionally village managed Muturu cattle randomly selected from five Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Benue State, Nigeria. The blood samples were examined for the presence of Trypanosome organism through p...

Sera from goats and cattle that were infected with 2 T. vivax clones (ILDat 1.2 and ILDat 2.1) derived from different stocks were analysed for antibody activity against the variable surface glycoproteins (VSGs) of the infecting clones by ELISA and immune lysis. To obtain purified VSG, lysed trypa...
