Trypanosoma congolense infection in cattle:the kinetics of events which follow the feeds of infected and uninfected glossina mohsitans mohsitans
Abstract
Susceptible cattle exposed to cyclical (tsetsetransmitted)
infection with Trypanasomacongolence developed local skin
reactions at sites of deposition of rue tucyclic trypanosomes. Initial reactions
of about 2 mm diarueter were detected 4 or 5 days after tsetse bites. Tile
reactions then increased progressively in size to attain maximum diameters of
up to 100 mm, 10 to 14 days later. Subsequently, they declined and by day 20
were indistinct arid not palpable..
