Babesia bigemina, Babesia argentina, and Anaplasma marginale: Coinfectious immunity in bovines

Experimental Parasitology, 1975
Abstract Forty-eight intact and eight splenectomized cattle were used to evaluate different systems of coinfectious immunization against Babesia bigemina, Babesia argentina, and Anaplasma marginale. Coinfectious immunity was induced by two methods: (1) blood of cattle acutely infected with B. bigemina, B. argentina and A.

Acute Babesia bigemina infection: Changes in fibrinogen catabolism

Zeitschrift f�r Parasitenkunde, 1977
Plasma from cattle infected with Babesia bigemina contained soluble fibrin in monomer and high molecular weight complex forms. Fibrin(ogen) degradation products were not constantly detected and there appeared to be little or no evidence to suggest fibrinolysis or fibrin deposition.

Cryopreservation of Babesia bigemina for in vitro cultivation

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1985
SUMMARY Babesia bigemina-infected rbc and merozoites were cryopreserved and used to initiate in vitro cultures in normal bovine rbc; the cryoprotectant was a final 10% polyvinylpyrrolidone in Vega y Martinez solution. A cooling rate of 20 C/min until −80C and then rapid transfer to liquid N2 storage was satisfactory. Samples for culture initiation were

EXPERIMENTAL INFECTIONS OF BABESIA BIGEMINA IN AMERICAN BISON

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1987
Babesia bigemina was experimentally transmitted from cattle to bison and back to cattle. One spleen-intact and two splenectomized American bison (Bison bison) inoculated with a B. bigemina stabilate exhibited clinical and hematological signs of babesiosis within 10 days of exposure.

Serological survey of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina in cattle in South Africa

Veterinary Parasitology, 2011
A total of 719 serum samples collected from clinically healthy cattle from eight provinces located in different districts of South Africa were examined by the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the standard indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) to determine the serological prevalence of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina.

Experiments on the transmission of Babesia major and Babesia bigemina by Haemaphysalis punctata

Veterinary Parasitology, 1996
Experiments on the transmission by Haemaphysalis punctata of three large Babesia strains were carried out. Three Babesia-free batches of laboratory reared H. punctata ticks were infected with two strains of Babesia major, B. major (Xingjiang strain), isolated with adult ticks of H punctata and B. major (Henan strain), isolated with H.

Serological responses to Babesia bovis vaccination in cattle previously infected with Babesia bigemina

Veterinary Parasitology, 2010
Serological responses of field cattle (260) on a farm in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa were determined before and after vaccination with the commercial Babesia bovis live-blood vaccine, using the indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT). All the cattle tested negative for B.

The Chemotherapy of Babesia bigemina Infection in Cattle

Research in Veterinary Science, 1965
SUMMARY The course of infection of Babesia bigemina using a standard frozen strain of organisms is described in splenectomized and non-splenectomized cattle. The need to use splenectomized cattle for chemotherapeutic trials is established and the validity of results obtained from splenectomized animals is discussed, with special reference to the ...

Fluorescent Antibody Tests for Babesia bigemina and B. berbera

Research in Veterinary Science, 1972
Summary The indirect fluorescent antibody method has been used to detect antibodies in cattle against Babesia bigemina and B. berbera, and as a means of identifying Babesia species in internal organs of cattle. Test antigen was prepared from washed, hacmolyzed blood in the case of B. bigemina, and from infected kidney in the case of B.

Improved Molecular Tools for Detection of Babesia bigemina

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2008
Molecular detection of Babesia bigemina involves a nested PCR protocol and reverse line blot hybridization (RLBH) assay based on the 18S gene. In this study, we report the development of molecular tools for improving B. bigemina detection in bovine blood—a one‐step PCR assay based on the amplification of rap‐1a paralogous and a new RLBH Babesia spp ...
