This study investigates the potential of enhancing the resistance of Glossina palpalis gambiensis to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense to mitigate the transmission of Human African Trypanosomiasis. We successfully cloned genes encoding proteins of interest in Sodalis strains, resulting in recombinant Sodalis (recSodalis) that were micro‐injected into the L3

Predisposing factors in enterotoxemias of camels (Camelus dromedarius) caused by Clostridium perfringens type A [PDF]
Clostridium perfringens type A a été isolé à partir de différents organes et d'intestins prélevés sur des dromadaires d'élevage et de course, morts des suites d'entérotoxémies aiguës et subaiguës dans deux foyers distincts.

Effect of Spiroplasma infection on the mating behavior of Glossina fuscipes fuscipes
Abstract Tsetse flies are insects of significant public health and zoonotic importance as they are the main vectors of African trypanosomes. To date, an effective vaccine is unavailable and efforts to limit the spread of the disease primarily rely on controlling the tsetse populations.

Abstract Glossina austeni Newstead (Diptera: Glossinidae) is a competent vector of the trypanosomes causing human African trypanosomiasis and the African animal trypanosomosis. Management of this pest has primarily involved trapping methods, Sterile Insect Technique, and research into vector competence–symbiotic interactions.

Metabolomics guides rational development of a simplified cell culture medium for drug screening against Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
n vitro culture methods underpin many experimental approaches to biology and drug discovery. The modification of established cell culture methods to make them more biologically relevant or to optimize growth is traditionally a laborious task.

Abstract Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) has proven effective to reduce tsetse population density in large infected areas where animal African trypanosomosis (AAT) and human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) elimination was difficult to achieve. However, the decrease in mass production of insectary‐reared tsetse and the limited but incomplete knowledge on ...

Report on the evaluation of surveillance systems relevant to zoonotic diseases in Kenya, 2015: A basis for design of an integrated human–livestock surveillance system [PDF]
The Zoonoses in Livestock in Kenya (ZooLinK) is a project that seeks to enable Kenya develop an effective surveillance programme for zoonotic diseases (infectious diseases transmissible between animals and human beings).

ABSTRACT Introduction Animal health professionals act as the first line of defence in zoonosis transmission. By handling animals on a daily basis, they are at risk of contracting zoonotic diseases. However, the lack of data on animal health professional risk perception on zoonotic disease and preventive practices may hamper decision making and policies

A significant limitation to cattle production is animal trypanosomosis, which threatens household food security and livelihoods. In addition to stalling livestock productivity, the disease has a devastating impact on animal health.
