Prevalence of antibodies to Neospora caninum in dogs

Veterinary Parasitology, 1999
Serum samples from 1077 dogs suspected of having Neospora caninum infections from 35 states in the United States and 3 provinces in Canada were tested for N. caninum IgG antibodies by the indirect fluorescent antibody test. Antibodies to N. caninum were found in 75 of 1077 (7%) of the samples. Twenty of the positive dogs were females, 17 were males and

Transplacental Neospora caninum infection in dogs

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1989
SUMMARY A Beagle bitch was inoculated sc and im with 1.5 million Neospora caninum tachyzoites on the 35th day of gestation. Eight pups were born alive 28 days after N caninum inoculation of the bitch. Pup 1 did not breathe and died while still enclosed in fetal membranes. Pup 2 died 2 days after birth (dab).

A structural study of the Neospora caninum oocyst

International Journal for Parasitology, 1999
Oocysts of Neospora caninum were collected from the faeces of a dog fed mouse brains containing tissue cysts of the NC-beef strain of N. caninum. Sporulated oocysts were spherical to subspherical, and were 11.7x11.3 microm. The length/width ratio was 1.04. No micropyle or oocyst residuum was present.

Vertical Transmission of Neospora caninum in Dogs

The Journal of Parasitology, 1995
Herein we report the development of a canine model to examine transplacental and/or transmammary transmission of Neospora caninum. Six pregnant bitches were experimentally infected with N. caninum on day 21 of gestation. One bitch successfully delivered a litter of 3 live pups.

Transplacental Neospora caninum Infection in Cats

The Journal of Parasitology, 1989
Transplacental transmission of Neospora caninum was studied in 2 pregnant cats (queens). Queen 1 was inoculated subcutaneously with 2 x 10(6) cell culture-derived N. caninum tachyzoites on day 47 of gestation. She gave birth to a full-term kitten on the 17th day after inoculation. The kitten died the second day after birth due to generalized N. caninum

Neospora caninum in crows from Israel

Veterinary Parasitology, 2015
A cross-sectional Neospora caninum seroprevalence study was performed on free ranging crows (Corvus cornix, Corvus monedula and Corvus splendens) from Israel in order to assess their exposure to this pathogen and evaluate their role as potential hosts or as sentinels of infection. Using the modified agglutination test (MAT) with a cutoff titer of 1:100,

Neospora caninum infection in three dogs

Journal of Small Animal Practice, 1995
ABSTRACTInfection withNeospora caninumin three young dogs is described. The predominant clinical signs were lower motor neuron deficits of the pelvic limbs, bladder and rectum. In two cases there was liver infection and dysfunction. The younger dogs had an acute onset rapidly progressive syndrome.

Fatal Neospora caninum Infection in Kittens

The Journal of Parasitology, 1989
Three 3-day-old kittens were inoculated subcutaneously and orally with Neospora caninum tachyzoites. A littermate and the queen were not inoculated with N. caninum and served as controls. Kitten 1 died between 14 and 16 days postinoculation (DPI) and was eaten by the mother.

Vertical Transmission of Neospora caninum in Mice

The Journal of Parasitology, 1995
Herein we report a murine model to examine transplacental transmission, transmammary transmission, or both, of Neospora caninum. Prevalence of transplacental transmission in outbred Swiss-Webster mouse pups was 85%, with 11 of 13 litters containing at least 1 transplacentally infected pup.

EXPERIMENTAL INFECTION OF SHEEP WITH NEOSPORA CANINUM OOCYSTS

Journal of Parasitology, 2002
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the potential of Neospora caninum oocysts to infect sheep and determine whether N. caninum DNA could be detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay in blood and brain of sheep after oocyst inoculation. Six ewes were inoculated per os with 10(4) N.
