ABSTRACT Plant extracts are an important raw material for the development of new drugs. Rumex obtusifolius L., popularly known as ‘bitter dock’, has significant pharmacological properties. This study evaluated the in vitro antitrypanosomal activity of aqueous, hydroethanolic and ethanolic extracts from the leaf and roots of R. obtusifolius L.

Frog‐biting midges were recorded exclusively on Hylodes asper (especially on males calling near streams and only during the day) and not on syntopic H. phyllodes, indicating host preference and activity synchronization. Micropredation on these visual‐signaling frogs is likely influenced by precipitation, especially under high maximum temperatures ...

Knowledge mapping of risk mitigation measures against vector‐borne diseases
Abstract A comprehensive synthesis of current evidence on surveillance, prevention and control measures for 25 selected vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) affecting animals in the EU is presented here. The assessment integrates evidence from systematic literature reviews, modelling studies, field investigations and expert judgement.

The Trypanosome Flagellar Pocket Collar and Its Ring Forming Protein—TbBILBO1
Sub-species of Trypanosoma brucei are the causal agents of human African sleeping sickness and Nagana in domesticated livestock. These pathogens have developed an organelle-like compartment called the flagellar pocket (FP).

THE DURATION OF TRYPANOSOME INFECTIONS [PDF]
I. INTRODUCTION It is well known that trypanosomes may be absent for long periods from the peripheral blood of an animal or of a person suffering from an infection by trypanosomes, and that although no treatment has been given. It also frequently happens that the parasites may reappear, after a more or less lengthy absence, in the blood of persons or ...
