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.

Chemoprophylaxis (Imidocarb) Against Babesia bigemina and Babesia argentina Infections

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1973
SUMMARY The chemoprophylactic effects of imidocarb 3,3′-bis-(2-imidazolin-2-yl)-carbanilide dihydrochloride) against bovine babesiasis were evaluated in 29 calves. The compound had prophylactic and therapeutic properties in calves artificially and naturally infected with Babesia bigemina and Babesia argentina of Colombian South American) origin ...

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.

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 ...

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.

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.

In vitro adherence of erythrocytes infected with Babesia bigemina and Babesia rodhainito thrombospondin

International Journal for Parasitology, 1990
The adherence of erythrocytes infected with Babesia bigemina and Babesia rodhaini to thrombospondin (TSP) in vitro is demonstrated. Blood with a range of parasitaemias was used and counts of cells which bound to TSP on plastic were significantly different from the controls with both Babesia species.

THE ENZYMES OF PYRIMIDINE BIOSYNTHESIS IN BABESIA BOVIS AND BABESIA BIGEMINA

Australian Journal of Experimental Biology and Medical Science, 1983
SummaryAll six enzymes of de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis leading to the formation of UMP have been demonstrated in whole homogenates from two bovine Babesia species, B. bovis and B. bigemina. The specific activities of the respective enzymes were of the same order of magnitude as observed for the related parasite, Plasmodium berghei.

Babesia bovis, Babesia bigemina, Babesia canis, Babesia microti and Babesia rodhaini: Comparison of ribosomal RNA gene organization

International Journal for Parasitology, 1992
The three ribosomal DNA (rDNA) units have been cloned from an Australian isolate of Babesia bigemina. The organization of the units is very similar to that reported for a Mexican isolate of B. bigemina. In Babesia canis four rDNA units have been identified. Both Babesia rodhaini and Babesia microti contain two different rDNA units.

A study of autoantibodies to phosphatidyl-serine in Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina infections in cattle

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 1994
Sera from cattle infected with Babesia bovis were found to contain antibodies to phosphatidyl-serine (PS), a negatively charged phospholipid normally found on the internal membrane of erythrocytes. In contrast, no autoantibodies were detected following Babesia bigemina infection indicating that the autoimmunity is not genus specific.
