During an outbreak of trypanosomiasis in cattle, buffalo and horses on the island of Madura, a survey was conducted to determine the prevalence of Trypanosoma evansi in the region. Blood samples were collected from 130 cattle and 147 buffalo in 5 villages, whole blood was examined for trypanosomes by the microhaematocrit (MHCT) method and serum samples were subjected to an enzyme linked immuno absorbent assay to detect T. evansi antibodies. T. evansi was detected by MHCT in 50% of the buffalo examined and 13% of the cattle, while antibodies were detected in 47% of the buffalo and 30% of the cattle. The outbreak was brought under control following the administration of Nagano (Suramin, Bayer) to infected animals and animals considered to be at risk of infection.
在马都拉岛的牛、水牛和马发生伊氏锥虫病疫情期间,开展了一项调查以确定该地区伊氏锥虫的流行情况。从5个村庄的130头牛和147头水牛采集了血样,通过微量血细胞比容(MHCT)法对全血进行锥虫检测,并对血清样本进行酶联免疫吸附测定以检测伊氏锥虫抗体。通过MHCT法在50%的受检水牛和13%的牛中检测到伊氏锥虫,而在47%的水牛和30%的牛中检测到抗体。在对感染动物和被认为有感染风险的动物施用长野(苏拉明,拜耳公司)后,疫情得到了控制。
