Figure 3From: Molecular epidemiology of camel trypanosomiasis based on ITS1 rDNA and RoTat 1.2 VSG gene in the SudanAgarose gel electrophoresis of field T. evansi DNA samples (50 ng) amplified with species specific primers TeRoTat920Fand TeRoTat1070R for T. evansi based on RoTat 1.2 VSG gene. A: Lane M1: 6 band marker. All other lanes are RoTat 1.2 VSG gene positive (8, 9, 12 and 17 weak positives; 8 & 9 from South Darfur); except lane 3, 4 and 16 were shown RoTate 1.2 VSG negative from Khowai. Samples shown here are from geographically different areas. B: Lane M1 6 band marker. Lanes 2-15 have camel samples. 7 and 9 are weak positives, 12 and 14 are strong positives, rest are negative, ie. 2-6, 8, 10, 11, 13 and 15. Lane 16 and 17 are control negative and positive respectively. (All samples were from Darfur). Extra bands in both gels are non-specific bands.Back to article page
