Trypanosoma vivax
Description
The TryViv dtec-qPCR comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Trypanosoma vivax detection by using qPCR. Trypanosoma vivax is a protozoal parasite belonging to the Trypanosomatidae family. It is the causative agent of the disease nagana, also known as animal trypanosomiasis, affecting cattle and wild mammals. Symptoms of T. vivax include fever, anorexia, lethargy, anaemia, progressive emaciation, a rapid decline in milk production, stillborn offspring and return to oestrus. All this symptoms causes a drop in animal productivity and severe economic losses in Africa, although it has spread to South America. T. vivax transmission occurs through a biological vector, the tsetse fly.
