Abstract

Evaluates components of a short term test for trypanotolerance criteria in N'Dama post-weaners exposed to a medium natural trypanosome challenge in Gabon; compares the effectiveness of different measures of control of development of anaemia; and measures the post-test recovery of packed red cell volume (PCV) values following treatment with a trypanocidal drug.
