| diagnosis of equine piroplasmosis in xinjiang province of china by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays using recombinant antigens. | the prevalence of equine piroplasmosis in xinjiang province, china, was examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (elisas). a total of 70 serum samples were taken from horses pastured on three farms in western xinjiang, and examined for diagnosis of equine babesia equi (b. equi) infection and b. caballi infection by elisas using recombinant equi merozoite antigen 1 (ema-1) and recombinant p48 antigen, respectively. of the 70 samples, 28 (40.0%) and 17 (24.3%) samples were positive for b. eq ... | 2002 | 12208045 |
| seroepidemiological evidence for the possible presence of babesia (theileria) equi and babesia caballi infections in donkeys in western xinjiang, china. | the prevalence of babesia (theileria) equi and b. caballi infections in donkeys in western xinjiang china was investigated. in total, 93 serum samples were randomly taken from donkeys in the kashi and ili areas, and examined for b. equi and b. caballi infections by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays using recombinant antigens. of the 93 samples, 9 (9.6%) and 36 (38.7%) samples were positive for b. equi infection and b. caballi infection, respectively. in addition, 2 (2.2%) samples were positive ... | 2006 | 16891793 |
| identification of piroplasm infection in questing ticks by rlb: a broad range extension of tick-borne piroplasm in china? | sensitive and specific diagnostic method for rapid and simultaneous detection and discrimination of the different species is needed for an effective control of piroplasmosis. here, a reverse line blot (rlb) assay was developed for piroplasm detection. a general pair of primer based on 18s ribosomal rna (rrna) gene was used to amplify v4 region of 18s rrna gene. general and specific probes for 13 piroplasm species were cited from previous publications or designed according to the alignment of 18s ... | 2016 | 26896077 |
| epidemiologic studies on theileria equi infections for grazing horses in ili of xinjiang province. | in order to found the epidemiological situation of t. equi in the horse herds in ili prefecture of xinjiang province, 723 blood samples collected from 4 counties and districts were test for t. equi through microscopic detection and polymerase chain reaction (pcr). in the result, we found that the 295 of 723 blood samples (40.8%) were positive for t. equi infection. the results showed that the choosed counties have a varying degrees infection. to our knowledge, this is the first time that we dete ... | 2017 | 28917300 |
