Tsetse populations and trypanosome prevalence in cattle were monitored from 1986 to 1993 in the Ghibe valley, south-west Ethiopia. From January 1991 to December 1993 between 2000 and 4000 cattle were treated at monthly intervals with a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide, cypermethrin (RS-alpha-cyan...

Trypansosome infections in approximately 110,000 tsetse of 12 species or subspecies, at sites in six African countries, were studied over various periods from 1983 to 1994. Infection rates ranged from 0.2 percent in Glossina fuscipes quanzensis Pires at a site in Zaire, to 18 percent in Glossina ...

A monoclonal antibody (MAb)Tv27 employed in an antigen-detection enzyme immunosorbent assay (Ag-ELISA) for diagnosis of Trypanosoma vivax infection was shown to react with a T. vivax-specific protein of an approximate molecular weight of 10 kDa. This protein is diffusely distributed throughout th...

In this case study of the Yale agro-pastoral zone in southern Burkina Faso, the sustainability of tsetse control as a local public good was shown to depend upon farmers' contributions to establish and maintain the traps and targets that attract and kill tsetse flies. Contingent valuation (CV) tec...
