ticks (acari: ixodoidea: argasidae, ixodidae) of chile.	the tick species recorded from chile can be listed under the following headings: (1) endemic or established: argas keiransi estrada-peña, venzal and gonzalez-acuña, a. neghmei kohls and hoogstraal; ornithodoros amblus chamberlin; otobius megnini (dugès); amblyomma parvitarsum neumann; a. tigrinum koch; ixodes auritulus neumann; i. chilensis kohls; i. cornuae arthur, i. sigelos keirans, clifford and corwin; i. stilesi neumann; i. uriae white; rhipicephalus sanguineus koch.

isolation and characterization of mouse monoclonal antibodies reactive with soft tick (acari: argasidae) salivary antigens of high molecular weight.	the purpose of this study was to immunologically characterize soft tick salivary antigens. balb/c mice hyperimmunized with salivary gland extract prepared from ornithodoros talaje (guérin-méneville) were observed to develop high titers of antitick salivary antigen antibodies. subsequent fusion of splenic lymphocytes from the hyperimmunized mice with sp-2/0-ag14 myeloma cells resulted in the production of 10 antitick igm-producing hybridoma clones. partial characterization of the respective tick ...	1996	8742524
evidence of common and genus-specific epitopes on ornithodoros spp. tick (acari: argasidae) salivary proteins.	new zealand white rabbits were repeatedly infested with ornithodoros turicata (duges), ornithodoros talaje (guérin-méneville), and ornithodoros coriaceus (koch) at 2-wk intervals. blood samples were taken from each animal 10 d after each infestation and the titer of anti-tick antibody was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. subsequent cross-reactivity studies demonstrated that the antitick antisera nonspecifically bound to salivary gland extract proteins prepared from several other ...	1995	7544412
cellular responses of laboratory mice to feedings of ornithodoros talaje (acari: argasidae) larvae.	studies were carried out in which laboratory mice were subjected to sequential feedings by slow feeding ornithodoros talaje (guerín-méneville) larvae to detect and characterize the host cellular response. after the first exposure, histological evidence showed a strong neutrophil infiltration at the site of attachment and feeding. by the third exposure, a marked shift to lymphocytes was noted in the mouse tissues using histological preparations of the feeding ticks. lymphocyte proliferation tests ...	1992	1625290
[occurence of ornithoros talaje guérin et méneville, in the township of santo inácio, bahia (author's transl)].	it is reported in the paper, the ocurrence of ornithodoros talaje in the township of santo inácio, near xique-xique, situated in a special region called "caatinga nordestina", in the state of bahia, brazil. some informations about the geological composition of the region and of the tick's ecologycal behaviour, are also presented.	1977	607909
