Abstract

Serum immunoglobulin levels and relative proportions of serum proteins were determined in bushbuck and zebu cattle inhabiting tsetse-infested areas of Uganda and animals living in tsetse-free areas. Serum IgM pand IgG levels were significantly increased in infected bushbuck and zebu cattle. Serum from captive bushbuck showed low levels of immunoglobulins. Serum protein concentrations in infected and non-infected cattle were similar but infected bushbuck had higher serum protein levels than uninfected animals.
