Parasitaemia pattern and mortality of mice infected by Indonesian Isolate of Trypanosoma evansi

Haematological changes in Trypanosoma evansi infected cattle

During the three years period of study twelve cross bred cattle were identified that they were suffering with clinical Trypanosomiasis. Up on clinical examination cattle had anorexia, fever, ocular discharges, dullness and enlarged lymph nodes. Stained peripheral blood examination revealed the presence of Trypanosoma evansi. Haematological abnormalities include decreased TEC, PCV, Hb and TLC va...

Flow cytometric enumeration of parasitaemia and haematologic changes in trypanosoma-infected mice.

African trypanosomiasis is a severe parasitic disease affecting both man and livestock. It is crucial to expand our fundamental knowledge of the intimate interactions between trypanosomes and their vertebrate hosts in order to develop new and efficient control strategies. The mouse model of trypanosomiasis is the most popular for research purposes because of all the logistic advantages of using...

Evaluation of Humoral Immune Response to Foot-and-Mouth Disease Vaccination in Experimentally Infected Guinea Pigs with Trypanosoma evansi

Trypanosoma evansi control and horse mortality in the Brazilian Pantanal.

The impact of three treatment strategies for Trypanosoma evansi control on horse mortality in the Brazilian Pantanal based on four size categories of cattle ranches is explored. The region's 49,000 horses are indispensable to traditional extensive cattle ranching and T. evansi kills horses. About 13% of these horses would be lost, annually, due to T. evansi if no control were undertaken. One pr...

Parasitaemia in Rabbit Bucks Experimentally Infected with Trypanosoma Brucei Brucei

This study was designed to determine the levels of parasitaemia on 20 healthy domesticated rabbit bucks infected with Trypanosoma brucei brucei over a period of eight weeks. Ten out of the 20 bucks were infected with 1 ml of the parasite containing 1 X 10 trypanosomes and known as infected group A, while the remaining ten bucks were left uninfected as group B. The infected bucks were monitored ...
