The purpose of the study was to characterize the differences in epidemiology (risks of infection. morbidity. mortality) and potential control of East Coast fever (ECF) between the selected strata. Evidence of Theileria parva infection was assessed by increased antibody levels as measured in an in...

The epidemiology of Theileria parva infections on smallholder dairy farms in Kenya
An improved Theileria parva DNA detection assay based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using primers derived from the 104 kDa antigen (p104) gene was developed to detect parasite DNA in blood spots on filter paper. The specificity of the assay was validated using DNA from a wide range of ca...

New methods for the diagnosis of Babesia bigemina infection
Bovine babesiosis has been identified clinically in many areas of Morocco. A seroepidemiological survey of B. bigemina infection was conducted in the 5 main dairy cattle areas in order to estimate the prevalence of the infection. A total of 1819 bovine sera was tested using ELISA to identify ani...
