Animal trypanosomosis: An important constraint for livestock in tropical and sub-tropical regions
Capítulo de libro en: Livestock: Rearing, Farming Practices and Diseases 2011, Pages 127-144 Desquesnes, M.a, Gutierrez, C.b Abstract Trypanosomosis is an important constraint to the livestock production in many parts of Africa, Asia and Latin America. Tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis (nagana) is a disease complex caused particularly by Trypanosoma vivax, T. congolense and T. brucei brucei. Non

Monitoring biodegradative enzymes with nanobodies raised in Camelus dromedarius with mixtures of catabolic proteins
Environmental Microbiology Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2011, Pages 960-974 Zafra, O., Fraile, S., Gutiérrez, C., Haro, A., Páez-Espino, A.D., Jiménez, J.I., De Lorenzo, V. Abstract Functional studies of biodegradative activities in environmental microorganisms require molecular tools for monitoring catabolic enzymes in the members of the native microbiota. To this end, we have generated repertories

Morphological and biometrical features of Trypanosoma evansi isolates from an outbreak in mainland Spain.
Veterinary Parasitology Volume 177, Issue 1-2, 19 April 2011, Pages 152-156 Tamarit, A. , Tejedor-Junco, M.T., González, M., Alberola, J., Gutierrez, C. Abstract According to several authors, Trypanosoma evansi is a monomorphic trypanosome found exclusively in slender intermediate forms, although additional studies have revealed that many strains present stumpy forms on rare occasions. In a
