Field evaluation of a dot-ELISA for the detection and differentiation of trypanosome species in infected tsetse flies (Glossina spp.)
A rapid, visually read, dot-ELISA developed for the detection and differentiation of trypanosome species in tsetse flies (Glossina spp.), was field tested alongside the standard fly dissection method on a ranch in south eastern Kenya. Of 104 G. pallidipes dissected, 2 were found to be infected with...
