Comparative sensitivity of dot-ELISA, PCR and dissection method for the detection of trypanosome infections in tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae)
A visually read dot-enzyme linked immunosorbent asay (dot-ELISA) developed for the detection of trypanosomes in tsetse flies (Glossina spp.) was evaluated in the laboratory and under field conditions. In the evaluation, the fly dissection method was used as a standard technique and compared to the p...
