Babesia bigemina: Host Factors Affecting the Invasion of Erythrocytes
Experimental Parasitology, 1995Babesia bigemina merozoites enter their host's erythrocytes by an unknown mechanism that likely involves parasite surface components. Identification of the parasite ligands involved in invasion is hampered by a lack of basic information about the invasion characteristics of Babesia bigemina.

Detection and quantification of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina using different target genes
Research in Veterinary ScienceMolecular assays have been widely used for the detection and quantification of bovine babesiosis due to their high sensitivity and specificity. However, variations in the sensitivity of pathogen detection may occur depending on the selected target gene. Thus, this study aimed to compare the detection sensitivity (DS) of Babesia bovis and B.

THE ENZYMES OF PYRIMIDINE BIOSYNTHESIS IN BABESIA BOVIS AND BABESIA BIGEMINA
Australian Journal of Experimental Biology and Medical Science, 1983SummaryAll 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.

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.

Cross-reactivity between Babesia bovis and B. bigemina becomes a problem in discrimination of the two infections in endemic areas where the two species usually occur in association. With the aim of identifying candidate proteins for use as specific diagnostic tools, culture-derived components of three geographically different stocks of B.

Babesia major mature and immature vermicules in the haemolymph of Haemaphysalis punctata were measured and found to be significantly larger than vermicules of Babesia bigemina. Mature B. major vermicules had a mean length of 15.53 micrometer and mature B. bigemina vermicules had a mean length of 11.79 micrometer.

Prevalence of Babesia Bigemina in Cattle
2001This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Babesia bigemina infection in cattle by microscopic and serologic methods in centre villages of Konya between April and October 1999. Peripheral blood was examined microscopically using thin smears. In 18 of 157 cattle (11.46 %) Babesia sp.

Immunity to Babesia bigemina in Experimentally Infected Cattle
The Journal of Protozoology, 1972SYNOPSISTwo groups of 5 and 6 Babesia bigemina“vaccine donor” animals of which 8 had been splenectomized were challenged 6 and 12 months respectively after they had lost their carrier state. All animals of the former, and 3 of the latter group survived; the remaining 3 animals succumbed to the challenge and died.

Designing Blood-stage Vaccines against Babesia bovis and B. bigemina
Parasitology Today, 1999The tick-transmitted apicomplexan parasites Babesia bovis and B. bigemina cause significant disease in cattle in many tropical and temperate areas of the world. These parasites present a challenge for vaccine development, and yet provide a system for studying the pathogenesis, mechanisms of protective immunity and regulation of host immune responses ...
