Van Grinsven, Koen W.A.; Van den Abbeele, Jan; Van den Bossche, Peter; Van Hellemond, Jaap J.; Tielens, Aloysius G.M. (American Society for Microbiology, 2009-08)Procyclic forms of Trypanosoma brucei isolated from the midguts of infected tsetse flies, or freshly transformed from a strain that is close to field isolates, do not use a complete Krebs cycle. Furthermore, short stumpy ...

Mbao, V.; Berkvens, Dirk; Dorny, P.; Van den Bossche, Peter; Marcotty, Tanguy (Agricultural Research Council, ARC-OVI and the University of Pretoria, 2007-03)Stabilates of Theileria parva sporozoites are mostly delivered in liquid nitrogen tanks to the East Coast fever immunization points. Using an in vitro titration model, we assessed the loss of infectivity of several ...
-
Masumu, Justin; Marcotty, Tanguy; Geerts, Stanny; Vercruysse, J.; Van den Bossche, Peter (Elsevier, 2009-07)The aim of this study was to assess the existence of possible cross-protection between Trypanosoma congolense strains of low and extreme virulence circulating in the same trypanosomiasis focus. Groups of six mice were ...
-
Gondwe, Nkwachi; Marcotty, Tanguy; Vanwambeke, Sophie O.; De Pus, Claudia; Mulumba, Misheck; Van den Bossche, Peter (Springer, 2009-11)In large parts sub-Saharan Africa, tsetse flies, the vectors of African human or animal trypanosomiasis, are, or will in the foreseeable future, be confined to protected areas such as game or national parks. Challenge ...
-
Kubi, C.; Van den Abbeele, Jan; De Deken, Reginald; Marcotty, Tanguy; Dorny, P.; Van den Bossche, Peter (Blackwell, 2006-12)Transmission of vector-borne diseases depends largely on the ability of the insect vector to become infected with the parasite. In tsetse flies, newly emerged or teneral flies are considered the most likely to develop a ...
-
Masumu, Justin; Geysen, Dirk; Van den Bossche, Peter (Elsevier, 2009-04)In order to verify whether the low impact on livestock production in endemic areas is related to a low number of trypanosome strains circulating in livestock, 37 Trypanosoma congolense isolates collected from cattle in 11 ...
