Isothermal microcalorimetry – A quantitative method to monitor Trypanosoma congolense growth and growth inhibition by trypanocidal drugs in real time

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2018
Trypanosoma congolense is a protozoan parasite that is transmitted by tsetse flies, causing African Animal Trypanosomiasis, also known as Nagana, in sub-Saharan Africa. Nagana is a fatal disease of livestock that causes severe economic losses.

Follow-up of dairy cattle naturally infected by Trypanosoma vivax after treatment with isometamidium chloride

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2021
Trypanosoma vivax infections cause nonspecific clinical signs in cattle associated with aparasitemic intervals, making disease diagnosis a challenge.

The susceptibility of Trypanosoma congolense isolated in Zambézia Province, Mozambique, to isometamidium chloride, diminazene aceturate and homidium chloride

open access: yesOnderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2005
Resistance to trypanocidal drugs has been detected in various African countries and is a serious impediment to the control of livestock trypanosomosis.

Protective efficacy of isometamidium chloride and diminazene aceturate against natural Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma congolense and Trypanosoma vivax infections in cattle under a suppressed tsetse population in Uganda

open access: yesOnderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2004
The protective efficacy of isometamidium chloride (ISMM) and diminazene aceturate (DIM) against Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma congolense and Trypanosoma vivax infections in cattle under a suppressed tsetse population was assessed in southeast Uganda.

Aberrant use and poor quality of trypanocides: a risk for drug resistance in south western Ethiopia

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2018
Background Trypanocidal drugs have been used to control African animal trypanosomosis for several decades. In Ethiopia, these drugs are available from both authorized (legal) and unauthorized (illegal) sources but documentation on utilization practices ...

Effect of time of treatment on the efficacy of trypanocides in rats experimentally infected with Trypanosoma brucei brucei

open access: yesNotulae Scientia Biologicae, 2023
The effect of treatment time on the efficacy of trypanocides in rats experimentally infected with Trypanosoma brucei brucei was assessed. The thirty albino rats utilized in this study were divided into six groups, each with five rats.

In Vitro Uptake of Isometamidium and Diminazene by Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1974
The cattle trypanocide, isometamidium, was readily taken up by inactivated Trypanosoma brucei , while its uptake by living parasites was reduced or inhibited by plasma. In both respects isometamidium differs from diminazene.

Reduced accumulation of isometamidium by drug-resistant Trypanosoma congolense

open access: yesParasitology, 1991
The accumulation of the trypanocide isometamidium chloride (Samorin®, RMB Animal Health Ltd, UK) by a range of clones of Trypanosoma congolense with varying sensitivity to the drug, was measured by methods based on the fluorescence of isometamidium. Fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry showed a reduction in drug accumulation by resistant clones ...

Antitrypanosomal Effects of Zanthoxylum zanthoxyloides (Lam.) Zepern. & Timler Extracts on African Trypanosomes

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
African trypanosomiasis is a disease caused by the parasitic protozoa of the Trypanosoma genus. Despite several efforts at chemotherapeutic interventions, the disease poses serious health and economic concerns to humans and livestock of many sub‐Saharan African countries. Zanthoxylum zanthoxyloides (Lam.) Zepern. & Timler (Z.

Generation of Monoclonal Antibodies to the Anti-Trypanosomal Drug Isometamidium

open access: yesHybridoma, 1994
Mice were immunized with either an isometamidium-human serum albumin (HSA) conjugate or an isometamidium-porcine thyroglobulin conjugate (PTG). Thereafter, monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) IL-A 1001, IL-A 1002, IL-A 1003, 5F7.B7, and 5F7.C9 were generated and selected on the basis that they recognized conjugated and unconjugated isometamidium, but lacked ...
