Culture confirmation of the carrier status of Babesia caballi-infected horses
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1993Culture of horse blood for Babesia caballi identified four carrier horses among nine previously infected horses. Three of the carriers had no detectable parasitemias on stained blood smears, and sera from two carrier horses were complement fixation test negative. Three cultures were continuously cultivated. Cryopreserved fourth-passage B.

Seroprevalence of Babesia caballi and Theileria equi in the Swiss horse population
Parasitology International, 2010In Switzerland, the prevalence and incidence of equine piroplasma parasite (EPP) infections are unknown. In order to obtain a first insight into the prevalence, a representative sample of 689 sera of horses from Switzerland was serologically tested for the presence of antibodies directed against T. equi and B.

Tubular structures associated with Babesia caballi in equine erythrocytes in vitro
Parasitology Research, 1999In-vitro-propagated Babesia caballi parasites were examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Many small pores were observed over the entire surface of infected erythrocytes on scanning electron microscopy, and on transmission electron microscopy these small pores were found to be openings of tubular structures.

A serological study of Babesia caballi and Theileria equi in Thoroughbreds in Trinidad
Veterinary Parasitology, 2007Ninety-three (93) horses were investigated for serum antibodies to Theileria equi (T. equi) and Babesia caballi (B. caballi) using the immunofluorescent antibody test (IFAT). Seventy-seven (82.8%) horses were seropositive; 31 (33.3%) were positive to T. equi compared to 64 (68.8%) to B.

Serodiagnosis of experimental and natural Babesia equi and B. caballi infections
Veterinary Parasitology, 1986The sensitivity and specificity of the complement fixation (CF) test for the diagnosis of Babesia infections in equines was assessed, using the indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) test as a reference. Antibodies were first detected between 11 and 20 days post infection (dpi) in the CF test and between 7 and 14 dpi in the IFA test in ponies infected ...

[An indirect ELISA for the detection of Babesia caballi in equine animals].
Zhongguo ji sheng chong xue yu ji sheng chong bing za zhi = Chinese journal of parasitology & parasitic diseases, 2010To clone and express BC48 gene of Babesia caballi, and to establish an indirect ELISA for the diagnosis of B. caballi in equine animals.The genomic DNA of B. caballi was extracted from the infected donkey blood. BC48 gene was amplified by PCR. The PCR product was cloned into expression plasmid pET28a, and expressed in E.

Seroprevalance of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in Horses of Mus Provice, Turkey
Alexandria Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2019Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is a tick-borne protozoal disease of horses, mules, donkeys, and zebras that is characterized by fever, anemia, icterus, and hepatosplenomegaly. This study was carried out to determine the seroprevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi in horses in Mus province by cELISA.

Culture, isolation and propagation of Babesia caballi from naturally infected horses
Parasitology Research, 2002Thirteen blood samples of horses from South Africa, five of which were seropositive for Babesia caballi and eight for both B. caballi and Theileria equi, were subjected to in vitro culture to identify carrier animals. None of the animals had a detectable parasitaemia on Giemsa-stained blood smears before culture initiation. Cultures were initiated in L-
