[ecology of a focus of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the area of thies, senegal, west africa. 4. spontaneous infestation and biology of phlebotomus duboscqi neveu-lemaire 1906].following their epidemiological investigation on the cutaneous leishmaniasis focus of keur moussa, the authors study the sandfly fauna. the species phlebotomus duboscqi is abundant (1532 samples out of 8411 sandflies collected between december 1976 and june 1979) and located inside the rodent burrows which have been found to be their larval breeding sites. five p. duboscqi females out of 356 dissected were infected by leishmania major promastigotes.19807226361
[ecology of a focus of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the thiès region (senegal, west africa). 6. characterization and typing of the strains of leishmania isolated].the authors studied the characterisation and typing of leishmania strains isolated in the keur-moussa focus from human lesions (4 strains), from the digestive tract of phlebotomus duboscqi (i strain) and from the rodents mastomys erythroleucus (2 strains) and tatera gambiana (2 strains). they used the following criteria: amastigote measurements, kinetoplast ultrastructure, pathogenicity in mice and hamsters, isoenzymes, kinetoplast and nuclear dna buoyant densities and the adler test. the result ...19827168884

[interepidemic surveillance of a cutaneous leishmaniasis focus in senegal].the cutaneous leishmaniasis is rampant in an endemo -epidemic way in the region of thiès, senegal. at the occasion of an epidemic observed between 1975 and 1978, the ecological study of the focus of keur moussa , led by dedet and al., permitted to discover, for the first time in west africa, the structure of a cutaneous leishmaniasis focus. the most important part of the present laboratory work consists in the observation of that wild anthropozoonosis due to leishmania tropica major, having as v ...19846738336
