Infectiousness in a Cohort of Brazilian Dogs: Why Culling Fails to Control Visceral Leishmaniasis in Areas of High Transmission [PDF]
The elimination of seropositive dogs in Brazil has been used to control zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis but with little success. To elucidate the reasons for this, the infectiousness of 50 sentinel dogs exposed to natural Leishmania chagasi infection was

Plasma membrane of Leishmania donovani.
Plasma membrane of Leishmania donovani promastigotes was isolated by disrupting the cells in Dounce homogenizer and found to be having two fractions M1 and M2. Chemical analysis of the two membrane fractions revealed that M1 had less RNA content and high sterol-phospholipid molar ratio than M2.
