An alternative approach to detect Trypanosoma in Glossina (Diptera: Glossinidae) without dissection

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2008
Background: Determining if a tsetse fly is infected by trypanosomes and thus potentially able to transmit trypanosome-related human and animal diseases is an extremely laborious and time-consuming task to perform, especially under field conditions.

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

International 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.
