Domestic pigs as potential reservoirs of human and animal trypanosomiasis in Northern Tanzania

9 Nov 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pig keeping is becoming increasingly common across sub-Saharan Africa. Domestic pigs from the Arusha region of northern Tanzania were screened for trypanosomes using PCR-based methods to examine the role of pigs as a reservoir of human and animal trypanosomiasis. METHODS: A total of 168 blood samples were obtained from domestic pigs opportunistically sampled across four districts in Tanzania (Babati,...
