PCR-RFLP for the detection and differentiation of the canine piroplasm species and its use with filter paper-based technologies

, 2007
Canine piroplasmosis is an emerging disease worldwide, with multiple species of piroplasm now recognised to infect dogs. A nested polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay was developed for the detection and ...

Relationships between Cytauxzoon felis and African piroplasmids [PDF]

, 1987
A cat which had recovered from Cytauxzoon felis infection following treatment with the antitheilerial drug, parvaquone, showed an increase in piroplasm parasitemia after splenectomy and its blood was suitable for the preparation of antigen smears for the

A retrospective study of Babesia macropus associated with morbidity and mortality in eastern grey kangaroos (Macropus giganteus) and agile wallabies (Macropus agilis)

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2015
This is a retrospective study of 38 cases of infection by Babesia macropus, associated with a syndrome of anaemia and debility in hand-reared or free-ranging juvenile eastern grey kangaroos (Macropus giganteus) from coastal New South Wales and south ...

Adjuvant effect of bovine heat shock protein 70 on piroplasm surface protein, p33, of Theileria sergenti

, 2010
In this study, we investigated the immunological effects of bovine heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) on the major Theileria sergenti surface protein (p33). The gene encoding p33 was expressed as a fusion protein with bovine HSP70 from a plasmid vector.

The role of healthy dog carriers of Babesia microti-like piroplasms

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background While in Europe Babesia canis has been traditionally held responsible for canine piroplasmosis, Babesia microti-like piroplasm (Bml) infection is being ever more observed in dogs, with the first clinical cases reported in northwestern Spain ...

Prevalence of Babesia microti-like infection in red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) from Portugal

, 2013
The prevalence of piroplasm (order Piroplasmida) infection was assessed in blood and bone marrow samples from 91 red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) from northern, central and southern Portugal by means of molecular methods.

Babesia conradae, sp. Nov., a Small Canine Babesia Identified in California

, 2006
Small piroplasms as a cause of canine babesiosis have usually been identified as Babesia gibsoni. Recent genetic studies suggested that small piroplasms are more likely comprised of at least three genotypically distinct species.
