Comparative speed of kill of sarolaner (Simparica) and afoxolaner (NexGard) against induced infestations of Rhipicephalus sanguineus s.l. on dogs. [PDF]
Parasit Vectors, 2016 The brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato, commonly infests dogs globally, is the major vector of the pathogen that causes canine monocytic ehrlichiosis and also transmits Babesia vogeli. A rapid speed of kill of a parasiticide is essential to reduce the direct deleterious effects of tick infestation and the risk of tick-borne pathogen ...

Diversity of Ticks in the Caribbean Region and Detection of Their Pathogens Using BioMark Technology [PDF]
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Introduction Ticks and the pathogens they transmit are widespread in Caribbean animal populations. There is; however, limited information on the diversity of ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TTBPs) in the region. This study aims to identify TTBPs across multiple Caribbean countries using a high‐throughput real‐time microfluidic PCR system.

Prevalence and Identification of Livestock Tick by Sex Ratio and Host in Tehran Province [PDF]
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.This study identified tick species infesting livestock and poultry in Tehran Province, revealing a female‐biased sex ratio and sheep as the most infested hosts. Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato was the dominant species. These findings underscore the need for host‐targeted tick control to mitigate disease transmission and economic losses.
