A Set of Rapid Diagnostic Tool for Babesia microti Infection

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study develops a cross‐priming amplification combined with vertical flow visualization (CPA‐VF) assay for rapid, low‐cost detection of Babesia microti, achieving a detection limit of 2.56 fg/reaction (equivalent to 0.000004% parasitic red blood cells) with 95.5% sensitivity and specificity compared to nested PCR.

A natural barrier: tick‐repellent potential of a spruce‐derived volatile blend against Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Both active and passive questing ticks, Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus, were assessed for behavioural responses to two novel plant‐derived repellent volatile organic compound blends. Both tick species were repelled by the products, and both novo blends were significantly more repellent than currently available commercial products.
