A comparison of ten methods for staining tick salivary glands for detection of Theileria parva infection from ticks fed on rabbits for various periods was under taken. Staining with azure without hydrochloric acid hydrolysis was found to be the most reliable method for detection of the presporozo...

Detection of Theileria parva in the salivary glands of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus: Evaluation of staining methods
The transmission of Theileria parva by nymphal and adult Rhipicephalus appendiculatus was compared by the assessment of salivary gland infections in tick batches fed on the same group of infected cattle at the same time. When larval and nymphal R. appendiculatus Muguga ticks were fed concurrently...

Comparison of the transmission of Theileria parva between different instars of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus
The initiation of feeding of infected Rhipicephalus appendiculatus adults induces the rapid development of Theileria parva sporoblasts within the salivary gland acini leading to the production of numerous sporozoites which are inoculated into the mammalian host initiating infection. In this study...
