Prevalence of antibodies against Neospora spp. and Sarcocystis neurona in donkeys from northeastern Brazil

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2016
Sarcocystis neurona and Neospora hughesi are coccidian protozoa that can cause neurological illness in horses in America. In this study we report seroprevalence of Neospora spp. andS. neurona in sera of 333 donkeys from the northeastern region of Brazil.

EXPERIMENTAL INFECTION OF PONIES WITH SARCOCYSTIS FAYERI AND DIFFERENTIATION FROM SARCOCYSTIS NEURONA INFECTIONS IN HORSES [PDF]

Journal of Parasitology, 2004
Sarcocystis neurona and Sarcocystis fayeri infections are common in horses in the Americas. Their antemortem diagnosis is important because the former causes a neurological disorder in horses, whereas the latter is considered nonpathogenic. There is a concern that equine antibodies to S. fayeri might react with S.
