Epidemiological study on Ixodid tick infestation and tick borne haemopathogens on cattle in Awi Zone, northwest Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 2194-2205, September 2022., 2022
A cross‐sectional study was conducted from December 2020 to July 2021 on Ixodid tick infestation and tick borne haemopathogens in North West Ethiopia. The overall prevalence of Ixodid tick infestation and tick borne haemopathogens were 45% and 3%, respectively. Babesia bigemina was the only haemoparasite detected in the present survey.

Malathion resistance in Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus from Ludhiana district, Punjab [PDF]

Journal of Parasitic Diseases, 2013
The resistance status of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus collected from Noorpur Bet village of Ludhiana district, Punjab was evaluated against malathion by Adult Immersion Test. The adult female ticks showed an upward trend in the mortality percentage with increase in drug concentration.

Infestation rates, seasonal distribution, and genetic diversity of ixodid ticks from livestock of various origins in two markets of Yaoundé, Cameroon

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 283-300, September 2022., 2022
Three genera of ticks were identified, Rhipicephalus, Amblyomma, and Hyalomma representing 71.04%, 15.99%, and 12.64% of tick species respectively. Ticks were more predominant during the rainy than the dry season, with Rhipicephalus spp. abundant during the rainy season and Hyalomma spp. during the dry season.

Terpenes on Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus: Acaricidal activity and acetylcholinesterase inhibition

Veterinary Parasitology, 2020
The Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus tick is the main ectoparasite of cattle in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Resistance to chemical acaricides has become widespread affirming the need for new drugs to tick control. Terpenes have become a promising alternative for cattle tick control, however the mechanism of action of these compounds ...

Immunogenic potential of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus aquaporin 1 against Rhipicephalus sanguineus in domestic dogs [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2017
Abstract This study evaluated a recombinant aquaporin 1 protein of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus (RmAQP1) as antigen in a vaccine against R. sanguineus. Five dogs were immunized with RmAQP1 (10 µg) + adjuvant (Montanide) (G1), and five were inoculated with adjuvant only (G2), three times.

In silico analysis for identification of tick phagotopes selected by phage-displayed libraries Análises in sílico na identificação de fagotopos de carrapatos selecionados por bibliotecas de phage display

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2009
Phage display techniques have been widely employed to map epitope structures which have served as the basis for developing molecular vaccines. We have applied this technique to map specific epitopes of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus.

Rhipicephalus microplus serine protease inhibitor family: annotation, expression and functional characterisation assessment [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus evades the host's haemostatic system through a complex protein array secreted into tick saliva. Serine protease inhibitors (serpins) conform an important component of saliva which are represented by a large

Immunoprotective potential of a Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus metalloprotease

Veterinary Parasitology, 2015
Ticks have serious impacts on animal and human health, causing significant economic losses in cattle breeding. Besides damage due to the hematophagous behavior, they transmit several pathogens. Low cost and environmental safety have made vaccines a promising alternative control method against tick infestation.
