Bovine Trypanosomosis: Seasonal Prevalence and Vector Density in Dara District, Sidama Region, Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
In the Dara district of the Sidama region, cattle production is still seriously threatened by Glossina spp. and trypanosomosis. Therefore, a sustainable community‐based tsetse and trypanosomosis control program should be put into place. ABSTRACT In sub‐Saharan Africa, animal trypanosomosis is a wasting disease that reduces livestock's health and ...

Controlling Rate of Release of Tsetse Fly Repellent Blend by Encapsulating in β‐Cyclodextrin Nanoparticles

Journal of Nanotechnology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Tsetse flies are major vectors of African trypanosomiasis, with devastating medical and veterinary consequences in sub‐Saharan region of Africa. Insect repellents are promising tool for control of tsetse flies in the region. A four‐component tsetse‐repellent blend (δ‐nonalactone, heptanoic acid, 4‐methylguaiacol, and geranyl acetone) previously ...

Evaluation of the relative roles of the Tabanidae and Glossinidae in the transmission of trypanosomosis in drug resistance hotspots in Mozambique

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae) and tabanids (Diptera: Tabanidae) are haematophagous insects of medical and veterinary importance due to their respective role in the biological and mechanical transmission of trypanosomes.

Development and evaluation of an ITS1 “Touchdown” PCR for assessment of drug efficacy against animal African trypanosomosis

Veterinary Parasitology, 2014
Animal African trypanosomoses (AAT) are caused by flagellated protozoa of the Trypanosoma genus and contribute to considerable losses in animal production in Africa, Latin America and South East Asia. Trypanosoma congolense is considered the economically most important species. Drug resistant T. congolense strains present a threat to the control of AAT
