Drug resistance to sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine in Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Mlimba, Tanzania.
(University of Nairobi.Department of Animal Physiology, 2006-10)BACKGROUND: Sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) has been and is currently used for treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in many African countries. Nevertheless, the response of parasites to SP treatment ... -
Application of PCR and DNA probes in the characterisation of trypanosomes in the blood of cattle in farms in Morogoro, Tanzania.
(University of Nairobi.Department of Animal Physiology, 2001-01)Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) probes were used to characterise trypanosomes from cattle in Morogoro region of Tanzania. Blood samples collected from 390 beef and dairy cattle in selected ... -
Development of a sensitive enzyme immunoassay for LH determination in bovine plasma using the streptavidin-biotin technique.
(University of Nairobi.Department of Animal Physiology, 1990-02)Using the biotin-streptavidin amplification technique, highly sensitive specific second-antibody enzyme immunoassays for determining LH in bovine plasma with long (48 h) and short (4 h) incubation periods were developed. ... -
Effects of Trypanosoma congolense infection in rams on the pulsatile secretion of LH and testosterone and responses to injection of GnRH.
(University of Nairobi.Department of Animal Physiology, 1994-11)Changes in pulsatile secretion of LH and testosterone and responses to exogenous GnRH were assessed at different stages of Trypanosoma congolense infection in rams. Jugular blood samples were collected every 15 min for 6 ... -
Immunoaffinity chromatography and a biotin-streptavidin amplified enzymeimmunoassay for sensitive and specific estimation of estradiol-17 beta.
(University of Nairobi.Department of Animal Physiology, 1990-02)A sensitive test system has been developed for estimation of estradiol-17 beta (E2) in bovine plasma. Plasma extracts are first purified by a selective immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) using an antibody raised against ... -
Effect of experimental infection with Trypanosoma congolense and scrotal insulation on Leydig cell steroidogenesis in the ram.
(University of Nairobi.Department of Animal Physiology, 1997-08)Testicular steroid content and Leydig cell steroidogenesis in vitro were investigated in rams on Days 28 and 58 after Trypanosoma congolense infection and were compared with those of rams in which testicular temperature ... -
