| Research Abstract |
Leishmaniasis is one of the protozoan infectious diseases transmitted by blood-sucking insects, sandflies. The disease is widely distributed, affecting at least 12 million people in 88 countries of the world. In this study, three disease factors, patients, vector sandflies, and reservoir animals, were investigated by employing molecular biological, immunological and epidemiological methods. Main results obtained are as follows : (1) relation between Leishmania spp. and disease forms, (2) determination of vector species, (3) search for different mammals infected with Leishmania, (4) development of rapid diagnosis and treatment, (5) search for control measures at each endemic area.
