Occurrence of Tick-Borne Pathogens in Rhipicephalus sanguineus Sensu Lato From Domestic Dogs in Kumasi, Ghana. [PDF]

Vet Med Int
Tick‐borne pathogens, transmitted by ticks, infect humans and animals worldwide. The brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato, is a significant vector of a number of pathogens, including Ehrlichia canis, Rickettsia and Anaplasma species. In Ghana, there is limited information on the pathogens carried by Rh. sanguineus s.l.

Occurrence and Haematology of Canine Tick-Borne Protozoa in Dhaka City, Bangladesh. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
• 30.62% of dogs were infested with Rhipicephalus sanguineus, which was mostly found on their neck and chest; however, infection with protozoa was 23.13%, where Babesia canis was the most prevalent (11.88%). • RBC counts, haemoglobin and PCV were significantly lower in infected dogs with higher eosinophilic counts.

Diagnosis of Hepatozoon canis in young dogs by cytology and PCR [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2011
Hepatozoon canis is a widespread tick-borne protozoan affecting dogs. The diagnosis of H. canis infection is usually performed by cytology of blood or buffy coat smears, but this method may not be sensitive. Our study aimed to evaluate the best method to achieve a parasitological diagnosis of H.

Vertical Transmission of Hepatozoon canis in Dogs.

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1993
We experienced vertical infections of puppies with Hepatozoon canis from 1990 to 1992. In 23 of 29 (79.3%) puppies from a total of 6 deliveries, gamonts or meronts were detected from 16 to 60 days after birth. The mother dogs were delivered of the puppies under tick-free conditions treated with an acaricide.
