Genetic diversity of Babesia bovis studied longitudinally under natural transmission conditions in calves in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Abstract Serum and DNA samples from 15 naturally infected calves in Seropédica, Brazil, were obtained quarterly from birth to 12 months of age, in order to longitudinally evaluate their humoral immune response against Babesia bovis and the merozoite surface antigen diversity of B. bovis. Anti-B. bovis I...

Abstract Babesiosis is an economically important infectious disease affecting cattle worldwide. In order to longitudinally evaluate the humoral immune response against Babesia bovis and the merozoite surface antigen diversity of B. bovis among naturally infected calves in Taiaçu, Brazil, serum and DNA s...

Antígenos liofilizados de Babesia bovis em ELISA para detecçäo de anticorpos
Assessment of lyophilised antigens in ELISA for Babesia bovis antibody detection

Uma preparaçäo antigênica bruta de Babesia bovis, preparada a partir de cultivo celular, foi liofilizada e utilizada em um teste de ELISA para detecçäo de anticorpos. O valor discriminante foi calculado pela média de amostras de soros negativos acrescida de dois desvios padröes. As duas séries de...
