Virome analyses of Amblyomma cajennense and Rhipicephalus microplus ticks collected in Colombia. [PDF]
Acta TropTick-borne viruses (TBV) have gained public health relevance in recent years due to the recognition of human-associated fatal cases and the increase in tick-borne disease and transmission. However, many tick species have not been studied for their potential to transmit pathogenic viruses, especially those found in Latin America.

Antiviral effect of the egg wax of Amblyomma cajennense (Acari: Ixodidae). [PDF]
Cytotechnology, 2012 The control of viral infections, especially those caused by influenza viruses, is of great interest in Public Health. Bio prospection has shown the presence of active principles in the hemolymph of arthropods, and in the salivary gland of ticks, and some of these are of interest for the development of new pharmacological drugs.

Inhibition of the classical pathway of the complement system by saliva of Amblyomma cajennense (Acari: Ixodidae). [PDF]
Exp Parasitol, 2016 Inhibition of the complement system during and after haematophagy is of utmost importance for tick success in feeding and tick development. The role of such inhibition is to minimise damage to the intestinal epithelium as well as avoiding inflammation and opsonisation of salivary molecules at the bite site.

Pest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 11, Page 4328-4334, November 2023., 2023 The baseline susceptibility of Haemaphysalis longicornis to organophosphate, carbamate and pyrethroid acaricides was calculated using a larval package approach. Results indicate that the Asian longhorned tick is susceptible to pyrethroids, coumaphos and carbamates, and should also be effective for controlling H. longicornis.

A risk assessment of equine piroplasmosis entry, exposure and consequences in the UK
Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 282-294, March 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is currently not endemic in the UK, despite a lack of formal surveillance and the presence of carrier horses in the equine population. Pathogen establishment would have significant welfare and economic impacts on the national equine industry, but the disease is often overlooked by UK practitioners ...
