Vector competence of sterile male Glossina fuscipes fuscipes for Trypanosoma brucei brucei: implications for the implementation of the sterile insect technique in a sleeping sickness focus in Chad [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Background Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) is a neglected tropical disease caused by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense transmitted by tsetse flies in sub-Saharan West Africa. In southern Chad the most active and persistent focus is the Mandoul focus, with

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

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

Outbreak of Trypanosoma vivax in Dairy Cows: Hematologic, Immunological and Antioxidant Responses Before and After Treatment with Isometamidium Chloride [PDF]

Pathogens
Trypanosoma vivax infection is an emerging condition that causes damage and mortality among cattle and is transmitted by mechanical vectors or contaminated fomites. This disease has been spreading in southern Brazil, causing anemia, weight loss, diarrhea,

Identification of a genetic marker for isometamidium chloride resistance in Trypanosoma congolense

International Journal for Parasitology, 2005
Isometamidium chloride has remained a very important prophylactic and therapeutic drug against trypanosomosis in cattle since its introduction into the market in the 1950s with, unfortunately, a concomitant development of resistance in trypanosomosis endemic areas. Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) was used to compare two isogenic clones of

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

Onderstepoort 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.

Effect of Isometamidium Chloride Treatment on Susceptibility of Tsetse Flies (Diptera: Glossinidae) to Trypanosome Infections [PDF]

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2006
Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of a single isometamidium chloride treatment of teneral tsetse flies, Glossina morsitans morsitans Westwood (Diptera: Glossinidae), on the subsequent susceptibility to an infection with Trypanosoma congolense or Trypanosoma brucei brucei. Flies were offered a first bloodmeal on sterile gamma-irradiated

An Update on African Trypanocide Pharmaceutics and Resistance [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
African trypanosomiasis is associated with Trypanosoma evansi, T. vivax, T. congolense, and T. brucei pathogens in African animal trypanosomiasis (AAT) while T. b gambiense and T.

High prevalence of Trypanosoma spp. and apparent trypanocidal drugs inefficacy in cattle in Al Radom National Park, Sudan [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Trypanosomosis is a major infectious disease affecting cattle in Sudan. In South Darfur, data on cattle trypanosomosis has been limited since the Darfur civil war (2003–2007). This study assessed the prevalence and distribution of Trypanosoma spp.

African animal trypanocide resistance: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
BackgroundAfrican animal trypanocide resistance (AATr) continues to undermine global efforts to eliminate the transmission of African trypanosomiasis in endemic communities. The continued lack of new trypanocides has precipitated drug misuse and overuse,

The therapeutic use of isometamidium chloride against Cryptobia salmositica in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 1999
Rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss injected intramuscularly with isometamidium chloride (0.01 or 0.1 mg kg-1) at 3 wk post-infection and given a booster 2 wk later had significantly lower parasitaemias than infected controls. Packed cell volume increased after treatment and remained higher than in infected controls. The concentration of isometamidium in
