A drug sensitive stock of T.b.brucei (STIB247) was used to generate a drug resistant strain (247MelCyR), expressing 130-fold increase in resistance to the melaminophenyl arsenical Cymelarsan (MelCy) by subcurative treatment in mice. Expression of the Cymelarsan resistant phenotype was maintained in...
