PCR methods for the discrimination of Babesia bovis isolates

Veterinary Parasitology, 1997
Three different polymerase chain reaction assays for the typing of isolates of Babesia bovis have been developed and compared with a hybridisation based method. Primers were designed within conserved regions flanking the variable length tandem repeats of the Bv80 and BvVA1 genes.

Procoagulant Activity of Babesia bovis-Infected Erythrocytes

The Journal of Parasitology, 1987
transmitted the trypanosome by introduction of infected mites per os to Serinus canaria. The presence of epimastigotes and metacyclic trypanosomes in 3 species of mites that are associated with moles and the growth of these flagellates to trypnomastigotes in culture at 37 C, which resemble the bloodstream form of T. talansmi ted the trypanosome by intr

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.

Babesia bovis host cell recognition proteins

International Journal for Parasitology, 1991
Babesia bovis enters host erythrocytes by invagination but nothing is known of the proteins involved. By means of metabolic labelling, differential centrifugation in oil and salt elution, a number of babesial proteins have been shown to bind to bovine erythrocytes. Strong binding is evidenced only by a 38/19 kDa pair.

Growth of Babesia Bovis in Bovine Erythrocyte Cultures

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1978
Babesia bovis was cultured in a suspension of bovine erythrocytes incubated at 37 degrees C in Medium 199 with 50% bovine serum. The cells in culture were kept in suspension by slow stirring in spinner flasks and the medium was replaced at 24-hour intervals.

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.

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.

Enzymatic characterization of Babesia bovis.

The Journal of protozoology, 1987
Agarose gel electrophoresis was used to identify metabolic enzymes in Babesia bovis and B. bigemina. Glutamate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose phosphate isomerase, and hexokinase were identified in B. bovis- and B. bigemina-infected erythrocytes and B. bovis merozoite preparations. A specific electrophoretic mobility was observed for each

Understanding the biology of Babesia bovis

2017
Bovine babesiosis caused by the protozoan parasite Babesia bovis remains a significant cause of avoidable economic loss to the livestock industry in many countries, including Australia. The precise mechanisms by which this parasite causes severe disease in susceptible cattle are not well understood, however, it is clear that pathophysiologically ...
