Assessment of animal African trypanosomiasis (AAT) vulnerability in cattle-owning communities of sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]

open access: yesParasites and Vectors, 2016
Animal African trypanosomiasis (AAT) is one of the biggest constraints to livestock production and a threat to food security in sub-Saharan Africa. In order to optimise the allocation of resources for AAT control, decision makers need to target geographic areas where control programmes are most likely to be successful and sustainable and select control

Improvements on Restricted Insecticide Application Protocol for Control of Human and Animal African Trypanosomiasis in Eastern Uganda

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
African trypanosomes constrain livestock and human health in Sub-Saharan Africa, and aggravate poverty and hunger of these otherwise largely livestock-keeping communities. To solve this, there is need to develop and use effective and cheap tsetse control methods.

Application of a systems approach to problem analysis of African animal trypanosomiasis in the Gambia

Agricultural Systems, 1996
Abstract The application of systems analysis techniques identified a number of key factors which will determine future developments in the Gambian livestock industry, with especial reference to traditionally managed trypanotolerant, N'dama cattle, and the importance of tsetse and trypanosomiasis.

[New data on the control of African animal trypanosomiasis].

Annales de parasitologie humaine et comparee, 1992
The glossina control turns towards cheaper, ecological, easier techniques: trapping, which the efficacy might be increased by odour attractants; synthetic pyrethrinoids (impregnated targets; dipping or application of "Pour-on" formulations on skin of cattle).

The epidemiology of african animal trypanosomiasis

1988
La virulence des souches de trypanosomes étant variable, les recherches tendent à les caractériser par l'étude des serodèmes, des zymodèmes et des nucléodèmes. L'évaluation du taux d'infection chez le bétail et l'apparition chez celui-ci de souches résistantes aux trypanocides restent deux problèmes importants.

Development and evaluation of egg yolk-derived antibodies for ELISA diagnostics of African Animal Trypanosomiasis

Veterinary Parasitology
African animal trypanosomiasis (AAT) represents a significant challenge to livestock development in Africa. Reliable and practical techniques are required for the disease's early detection and management. One of the most commonly used tests for this purpose is the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).

Evaluating the prevalence of human and animal african trypanosomiasis in nigeria: A scoping review

ABSTRACT African trypanosomiasis is a protozoan disease that affects both humans and animals. Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) is a Neglected Tropical Disease targeted for elimination in 2030. Although WHO has not reported HAT from Nigeria in the last decade, there are published studies reporting seroprevalence, parasite detection ...
