prevalence and genetic diversity of equine piroplasms in tov province, mongolia. | equine piroplasmosis represents a serious problem in horse industry. although, researchers suggested the possible use of sub-unit vaccines to control equine piroplasmosis, the genetic diversity of vaccine candidate antigens was not properly investigated. in the present study, we screened 250 horses reared in three different districts of tov province, mongolia, for babesia caballi and theileria equi using elisa and nested pcr (npcr) assays. among these animals, piroplasms were detected in 128 (51 ... | 2013 | 23416256 |
detection of equine babesia spp. gene fragments in dermacentor nuttalli olenev 1929 infesting mongolian horses, and their amplification in egg and larval progenies. | babesia equi (ema-1) and babesia caballi (bc48) gene fragments were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (pcr), in blood samples, and partially fed-females and egg and larval progenies of dermacentor nuttalli, collected from horses in altanbulag, tuv province, mongolia. while babesia parasite dna was detected in some horse blood samples during the first pcr, all positive cases in partially fed-female ticks, eggs and larvae were confirmed by nested pcr. present study reinforces earlier similar ... | 2002 | 12237521 |
prevalence of equine piroplasmosis in central mongolia. | antigen for the indirect fluorescent antibody test (ifat) was routinely prepared from infected erythrocytes from horses experimentally infected with babesia equi and babesia caballi. with the successful establishment of in vitro cultures of b. equi and b. caballi, it is now possible to employ culture-derived antigens in this test. in this study, in vitro-propagated b. equi- and b. caballi-infected erythrocytes were used as antigen in the ifat. various modifications to an established protocol had ... | 1997 | 9352563 |
