Topics of discussion include non-specific trypanocidal activity in cape buffalo serum; recurrence of psrasitaemia in Cape buffalo and a second resistance mechanism; antibodies against invariant antigens and their contribution to the control of parasitaemia in chronically infected Cape buffalo; and what immune responses in addition to antibody production might suppress trypanosome population growth in Cape buffalo.Limited Accessparasitaemiaafrican buffaloestrypanosomes (phytomonas)disease controlserumantibodiesinfectious diseasesparasitologyInnate and acquired control of trypanosome parasitaemia in Cape buffaloJournal Article
