| wild chimpanzees are infected by trypanosoma brucei. | although wild chimpanzees and other african great apes live in regions endemic for african sleeping sickness, very little is known about their trypanosome infections, mainly due to major difficulties in obtaining their blood samples. in present work, we established a diagnostic its1-based pcr assay that allows detection of the dna of all four trypanosoma brucei subspecies (trypanosoma brucei brucei, trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, trypanosoma brucei gambiense, and trypanosoma brucei evansi) in f ... | 2015 | 26110113 |

| antiprotozoal activity of khaya anthotheca, (welv.) c.d.c. a plant used by chimpanzees for self-medication. | khaya species, endemic to africa and madagascar, continues to be valuable in indigenous traditional medicine. their bitter tasting barks are decocted to treat fevers, several febrile conditions, microbial infections and worm infestations. in the budongo rain forest of western uganda, non-human primates, especially chimpanzees and baboons, have been observed to eat the bitter non-nutritious bark and occasionally the seed. | 2013 | 23501156 |
