Pathogens of house mice on arid Boullanger Island and subantarctic Macquarie Island, Australia

open access: yes, 2003
Studies on island populations of house mice (Mus domesticus) and their viruses reveal insights into viral persistence in isolated communities. We surveyed the ectoparasites, endoparasites, and antiviral antibodies for 11 murine viruses and two bacteria ...

Pathogenicity of Theileria parva is influenced by the host cell type infected by the parasite

open access: yes, 1996
Theileria parva has been shown to infect and transform B cells and T cells at similar frequencies in vitro. However, the majority of parasitized cells in the tissues of infected cattle are alpha/beta T cells.

Seroprevalence rates of antibodies against Leishmania infantum and other protozoan and rickettsial parasites in dogs Soroprevalência de anticorpos contra Leishmania infantum e outras espécies de protozoários e rickettsia em cães

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2013
Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is caused by the protozoan Leishmania infantum, which infects dogs and humans in many regions of Brazil. The present study involved an indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) to analyze L. infantum, Ehrlichia spp., Babesia canis, Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum infection rates in serum samples from 93 dogs ...

Phenotypic variation of surface antigenic determinants in Trichomonas vaginalis detected by monoclonal antibodies

open access: yes, 1992
We produced a large panel of murine monoclonal antibodies against surface determinants of Trichomonas vaginalis using the hybridoma technique. An immunoenzymatic technique (E.L.I.S.A.) was used to screen positive hybrid cells producing specific ...
