A historical review of Babesia spp. associated with deer in Europe: Babesia divergens/Babesia divergens-like, Babesia capreoli, Babesia venatorum, Babesia cf. odocoilei

Veterinary Parasitology, 2021
This review is intended to provide an overview of the occurrence and diversity of Babesia spp. in European deer. Babesiosis is an emerging vector-borne disease with negative implications on animal and public health. Cervidae are important hosts for Ixodidae ticks, playing a critical role in the epidemiology of the parasite.

Purine-metabolizing enzymes in Babesia divergens

Parasitology Research, 1987
Extracts of Babesia divergens were examined for the enzymes which catalyse purine salvage. Adenosine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.4), guanine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.3), inosine phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.1), purine phosphoribosyltransferases (EC 2.4.2.7, EC 2.4.2.8, EC 2.4.2.22) and nucleoside kinases (EC 2.7.1.15, EC 2.7.1.20, EC 2.7.1.73) were all detected at ...

Babesia divergens

2013
2.2.1. Babesia divergens The first human babesiosis case was caused by B. divergens and it occurred in Croatia (Skrabalo and Deanovic, 1957). Human cases are typically severe, especially in splenectomized individuals. To date, approximately 40 cases have been reported, primarily from France, Ireland, and Great Britain with fewer cases reported from

COMPARATIVE INFECTIVITY OF BABESIA DIVERGENS AND A ZOONOTIC BABESIA DIVERGENS–LIKE PARASITE IN CATTLE

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2005
Babesia divergens–like parasites identified in human babesiosis cases in Missouri and Kentucky and in eastern cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus floridanus) on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts, share identical small subunit ribosomal RNA gene sequences. This sequence is 99.8% identical to that of Babesia divergens, suggesting that the U.S. parasite may be B.

Improved disease resistance after Babesia divergens vaccination

Parasitology Research, 1998
The efficacy of a new inactivated vaccine against Babesia divergens was evaluated by means of inoculation tests. The infection was initiated by i.v. injection of blood containing 2 x 10(9) living parasites into splenectomized and non-splenectomized calves. Clinical status and hematological parameters were determined.

First report of Babesia divergens in Tunisia

Veterinary Parasitology, 1996
Babesia divergens of bovine origin was isolated, for the first time in Tunisia, from a cow of a local breed (Bos taurus) from a locality in the north-west of the country. Gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) were used for the isolation of the parasite which was inoculated into a splenectomised Friesian calf that developed a babesiosis, thus confirming the ...
