Ethanol inactivation of orthonairoviruses in ixodid ticks. [PDF]

Exp Appl Acarol, 2021
AbstractIxodid ticks represent vectors and reservoirs for a broad range of zoonotic pathogens. Collected ticks from field studies are therefore usually stored in ethanol, which in higher concentrations effectively inactivates most of the known tick-borne pathogens.

Ixodid ticks and zoonotic tick-borne pathogens of the Western Balkans. [PDF]

Parasit Vectors
AbstractIxodid ticks are distributed across all countries of the Western Balkans, with a high diversity of species. Many of these species serve as vectors of pathogens of veterinary and medical importance. Given the scattered data from Western Balkan countries, we have conducted a comprehensive review of available literature, including some historical ...

Larval thermal characteristics of multiple ixodid ticks. [PDF]

Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol, 2021
Temperature limits the geographic ranges of several tick species. Little is known about the thermal characteristics of these pests outside of a few studies on survival related to thermal tolerance. In this study, thermal tolerance limits, thermal preference, and the impact of temperature on activity levels and metabolic rate were examined in larvae for
