Immunogenicity and Serological Cross-Reactivity of Saliva Proteins among Different Tsetse Species.
Tsetse are vectors of pathogenic trypanosomes, agents of human and animal trypanosomiasis in Africa. Components of tsetse saliva (sialome) are introduced into the mammalian host bite site during the blood feeding process and are important for tsetse's ability to feed efficiently, but can also i...
