The Seroprevalence of Equine Trypanosomosis in the Pantanal [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1999
Since little information is available on the epizootiological status of Trypanosoma evansi in South America and particularly Brazil, we evaluated equine serum samples collected in 1993, 1994, 1995 and 1997 for the presence of antibodies against this trypanosome species. Our study shows corroborative evidence about the correlation among high T.

The Significance of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Parasitic Infections Involving the Central Nervous System

open access: yesPathogens, 2013
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) represent a large family of over twenty different secreted or membrane-bound endopeptidases, involved in many physiological (embryogenesis, precursor or stem cell mobilization, tissue remodeling during wound healing, etc.)

Improved Methods for the Diagnosis of African Trypanosomosis [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1999
The diagnosis of trypanosomosis in animals with low parasitaemia is hampered by low diagnostic sensitivity of traditional detection methods. An immunodiagnostic method based on a direct sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), using monoclonal antibodies, has been examined in a number of African laboratories for its suitability for ...
