Abstract
Donkeys experimentally infected subcutaneously with 7.5 x 10(6) trypan osomes showed intermittent fever, weakness, swollen prescapular lymphn odes, anaemia and emaciation. Haematological examination revealed macr ocytic normochromic anaemia, leucopenia with marked neutropenia and co ncomitant lymphocytosis. Albumin decreased and globulin increased. IgM levels increased persistantly during the course of infection. On necr opsy, gross and histopathological changes were observed in liver, lung s, spleen, kidneys and meninges.
