Haematological indices in Trypanosoma brucei brucei (Federe isolate) infected Nigerian donkeys (Equus asinus) treated with homidium and isometamidium chloride of ciprofloxacin in broiler chickens after single intravenous and intraingluvial administration [PDF]
The efficacy of intramuscular administration of Homidium chloride (Novidium®) and Isometamidium chloride (Sécuridium®) in Nigerian donkeys (Equus asinus) experimentally infected with T. b. brucei (Federe isolate) was investigated.

Resistance to diminazene is one of the main problems facing the control of the livestock disease Animal African Trypanosomiasis (AAT, or nagana), caused by the parasite Trypanosoma congolense. We investigated the adaptations of the parasite that allow it to resist the drug and find that changes to the mitochondrion, where the parasite produces its ...

Antiprotozoal Drug Handling and Management Practices in Asella District, Central Oromia, Ethiopia
Background and Methods. Protozoal infections such as dourine caused by trypanosomes are found to be a threat to the life and productivity of the equine population. Inappropriate drug use is a problem of the whole world; however, the degree of the problem is higher in developing countries like Ethiopia.

The accumulation and compartmentalization of isometamidium chloride in Trypanosoma congolense, monitored by its intrinsic fluorescence [PDF]
Interaction of the trypanocide isometamidium chloride with components of Trypanosoma congolense results in characteristic shifts in the intrinsic fluorescence of the drug. The specificity of this interaction was investigated by analysing the effects of various physicochemical manipulations on its fluorescence properties.
