Description of a Nanobody-based Competitive Immunoassay to Detect Tsetse Fly Exposure

BACKGROUND: Tsetse flies are the main vectors of human and animal African trypanosomes. The Tsal proteins in tsetse fly saliva were previously identified as suitable biomarkers of bite exposure. A new competitive assay was conceived based on nanobody (Nb) technology to ameliorate the detection of an...
