Genetic variability within Trypanosoma brucei gambiense: evidence for the circulation of different genotypes in human African trypanosomiasis patients in Côte d'Ivoire.

Abstract excerpt

For 23 Ivoirian patients infected by Trypanosoma-brucei gambiense, isolation and genetic characterization using PCR and microsatellite primers were performed (in 1996-99) using 2 different isolates (A and B) from each patient. When using TBDAC 1/2, 7 genotypes were observed, and DNAs A and B for...
