Neospora caninum, a protozoal parasite, is a common cause of abortion in dairy cattle in North America. Cows that become infected with Neospora appear to remain infected for life. Infection is acquired through vertical transmission (dam to offspring in utero) or horizontal transmission and leads to endemic abortion, with occasional herds reporting ...

The phylogeny of Neospora caninum
Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1994Morphological studies by electron microscopy on the protozoan Neospora caninum have shown that this organism possesses a subcellular structure typical of parasites classified in the family Sarcocystidae, subclass Coccidiasina of the phylum Apicomplexa.

A European perspective on Neospora caninum
International Journal for Parasitology, 2000Since the identification of Neospora caninum in 1984 as a parasite separate from Toxoplasma gondii by Bjerkas et al., and its subsequent characterization and classification in 1988 by Dubey and co-workers, this parasite has attracted increasing attention, primarily as an important causative agent of abortion in cattle and neuromuscular disease in dogs,

Serological diagnosis of Neospora caninum infection
International Journal for Parasitology, 1999Since the first isolation of the apicomplexan parasite Neospora caninum, a range of serological assays have been developed for use in dogs, cattle and a variety of other potential host species. The tests include the indirect fluorescent antibody test, the direct agglutination test and different enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.

The antigenic composition of Neospora caninum
International Journal for Parasitology, 1999Neospora caninum is an apicomplexan parasite which causes neosporosis, namely stillbirth and abortion in cattle, and neuromuscular disease in dogs. Although N. caninum is phylogenetically and biologically closely related to Toxoplasma gondii, it is antigenically clearly distinct. In analogy to T. gondii, three stages have been identified. These are: (i)
