Two recombinant Taenia solium oncosphere antigens, designated TSOL18 and TSOL45-1A, were investigated as vaccines to prevent transmission of the zoonotic disease cysticercosis through pigs. Both antigens effective in inducing very high levels protection (up 100%) three independent vaccine trials pigs against experimental challenge infection with T. eggs, which undertaken Mexico Cameroon. This is highest level that has been achieved by vaccination a defined antigen. TSOL45-1A provide basis...
A pilot field trial of the TSOL18 vaccine was undertaken in Cameroon. Two hundred and forty, 2-3 month-old piglets were distributed to 114 individual households pairs. Vaccinated animals received three immunisations with 200 microg plus 5 mg Quil 30 mg/kg oxfendazole at time second immunisation. Necropsies when pigs approximately 12 months age. Viable Taenia solium cysticerci identified 20 control (prevalence 19.6%); no found any vaccinated (P<0.0001). Combined application vaccination a...
Taenia solium cysticercosis is an important zoonosis in many developing countries. Human neurocysticercosis recognised as cause of epilepsy regions where the parasite occurs. However, it largely underreported and there a lack data about disease burden. Because body information on human porcine Cameroon becoming available, present study was undertaken to calculate impact this neglected zoonosis.Both cost Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY) estimations were applied. All necessary parameters...
Background Non-Typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) is an important cause of invasive bacterial disease and associated with mortality in Africa. However, little known about the environmental reservoirs predominant modes transmission. Our study aimed to role domestic animals transmission NTS humans rural area The Gambia. Methodology Human isolates were obtained through active population-based case-control surveillance designated determine aetiology epidemiology enteric infections covering 27,567...
Introduction: The prevalence of virulence genes in non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) and its association with commonly used antibiotics West Africa is unknown. Methodology: We tested 185 NTS isolates from children, animals, food products for the presence twelve by PCR. Ten belonged to five pathogenicity islands implicated pathogenesis. Results: except sopE pefA were present at least 70% tested; observed 33% 44% isolates, respectively. most prevalent gene was invA (99.5%), which an invasion...
From a bioassay-guided fractionation procedure using Herpes simplex virus type 1 as the target model, virucidal saponin mixture (maesasaponin B) was isolated from MeOH extract of leaves Maesa lanceolata. The maesasaponin B consisted six homologous oleanane-type triterpenoid saponins 1−6, identified by 1H, 13C, and 2D NMR spectroscopy mass spectrometry. (1−6) showed several biological activities expected for saponins. It exhibited moderate activity against enveloped viruses. tested further...
