Susceptibility of goats to tsetse transmitted challenge with Trypanosoma vivax from East and West Africa
Publicado 1988“…To determine if, as is the case withTrypanosoma bruceiandT. congolense, serodemes ofT. vivaxcould be distinguished on the basis of immunity to the metacyclic stages of the parasite, attempts were made to immunize goats by infection with infected tsetse, followed by chemotherapy or eventual ‘self-cure’. Thirty goats were infected by tsetse with either clones or stocks ofT. vivaxfrom East or West Africa. …”
