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

Epidemiological study of canine trypanosomosis in an urban area of Ivory Coast [PDF]
Following confirmed cases of trypanosomosis in military working dogs, c cross-sectional study was undertaken to evaluate the source of infection and determine the prevalence of canine infection with Trypanosoma congolense in the urban focus of Abidjan ...

Effect of Isometamidium Chloride Treatment on Susceptibility of Tsetse Flies (Diptera: Glossinidae) to Trypanosome Infections [PDF]
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 antigen-capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect isometamidium chloride in Oncorhynchus spp. [PDF]
An antigen-capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect and measure isometamidium chloride in the plasma of Oncorhynchus tshawytscha and O. mykiss. Isometamidium-ovalbumin conjugate and anti-isometamidium antibodies were used to coat polystyrene plates.

There are three trypanosoma species of veterinary importance in South America: (1) Trypanosoma evansi, the causative agent of derrengadera mechanically transmitted by bloodsucking insects such as tabanids, (2) Trypanosoma vivax, also mechanically transmitted by some dipteras hematophages as tabanids and/or Stomoxys, and (3) T.

Abstract Trypanosoma evansi infections (including Surra) have been assessed according to the criteria of the Animal Health Law (AHL), in particular criteria of Article 7 on disease profile and impacts, Article 5 on the eligibility of T. evansi infections (including Surra) to be listed, Article 9 for the categorisation of T. evansi infections (including

An isolate of T. vivax was collected from a naturally infected Zebu in French Guyana. The isolate was subsequently shown to produce pathogenic infections in both Taurine and Zebu cattle. However, its sensitivity of the population to diminazene aceturate and isometamidium chloride was determined since these are the most commonly used anti-trypanosomal ...

Trypanosoma evansi, the agent of “surra,” is a salivarian trypanosome, originating from Africa. It is thought to derive from Trypanosoma brucei by deletion of the maxicircle kinetoplastic DNA (genetic material required for cyclical development in tsetse flies).

Field investigation of Trypanosoma evansi and comparative analysis of diagnostic tests in horses from Bahawalpur, Pakistan [PDF]
In order to assess the prevalence of Trypanosoma evansi, a parasitological, molecular, and serological-based investigation was carried out in randomly sampled horses (n = 375) belonging to different age groups, sexes, and localities from the district of ...

Resistance to trypanocidal drugs has been detected in various African countries and is a serious impediment to the control of livestock trypanosomosis. To determine whether drug resistant trypanosome strains are present in the Zambézia Province of Mozambique a study was initiated.
