| initial development and preliminary evaluation of a multiplex bead assay to detect antibodies to ehrlichia canis, anaplasma platys, and ehrlichia chaffeensis outer membrane peptides in naturally infected dogs from grenada, west indies. | tick-borne bacteria, ehrlichia canis, anaplasma platys, and ehrlichia chaffeensis are significant pathogens of dogs worldwide, and coinfections of e. canis and a. platys are common in dogs on the caribbean islands. we developed and evaluated the performance of a multiplex bead-based assay to detect antibodies to e. canis, a. platys, and e. chaffeensis peptides in dogs from grenada, west indies, where e. canis and a. platys infections are endemic. peptides from outer membrane proteins of p30 of e ... | 2017 | 27852813 |
| prevalence of ehrlichia canis, anaplasma platys, babesia canis vogeli, hepatozoon canis, bartonella vinsonii berkhoffii, and rickettsia spp. in dogs from grenada. | to identify the tick-borne pathogens in dogs from grenada, we conducted a serologic survey for ehrlichia canis in 2004 (104 dogs) and a comprehensive serologic and molecular survey for a variety of tick-borne pathogens in 2006 (73 dogs). in 2004 and 2006, 44 and 32 dogs (42.3% and 43.8%) were seropositive for e. canis, respectively. in 2006, several tick-borne pathogens were identified by serology and pcr. dna of e. canis, anaplasma platys, babesia canis vogeli, hepatozoon canis, and bartonella ... | 2008 | 18160223 |
| intraoperative bleeding in dogs from grenada seroreactive to anaplasma platys and ehrlichia canis. | frequent exposure of grenadian dogs to rhipicephalus sanguineus results in anaplasma platys, and ehrlichia canis seroreactivity. during elective surgeries, substantial intraoperative hemorrhage occurs in some seroreactive dogs. | 2014 | 25274547 |
