PCR-based detection of Theileria infection and molecular characterization of Tams1 T. annulata vaccine strain
In order to develop a method for detecting and identification of Theileria annulata, the specific primers from the major merozoite-piroplasm surface antigen sequence of Theileria (Tams1) were used to detect the T. annulata by nested-PCR technique. The assay provides a valuable tool for the identification of Theileria annulata directly from clinical samples and enables determination of the infec...
متن کاملMolecular prevalence and phylogenetic analysis of Theileria annulata and Trypanosoma evansi in cattle in Northern Tunisia
The present study aimed to estimate the molecular prevalence of Theileria annulata and Trypanosoma evansi infection in cattle in Northern Tunisia. A total number of 96 cattle from five farms were evaluated. T. annulata and T. evansi prevalences were 61% [56/66] and 10% [7/13], respectively, at a confidence interval (CI) of 95%, while co-infection was present in 6% [4/8] of the tested animals at...
متن کاملDetection of Theileria annulata carrier cattle by PCR.
A simple method for treating bovine blood samples for direct detection of T. annulata in carriers, after polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSU rRNA) gene is described. The threshold of detection of the PCR-assay was an erythrocytic parasitaemia of 0.00008% corresponding to 16 infected bovine erythrocytes. In 50 known carriers, 42 were positive in PCR,...
متن کاملBiochemical, Hematological studies in cattle naturally infected with Theileria annulata
The aim of the present study dealt with biochemical and hematological changes in cattle which presented to the Azad clinic of veterinary school in Urmia during the period between Dec 2008 to January 2012. A total of 985 cattle with positive theileriosis were examined. Data were collected on hematological conditions of the cattle. Ages of these slaughtered buffaloes ranged from 6 to 9 years, (79...
متن کاملMolecular surveillance of Theileria ovis, Theileria lestoquardi and Theileria annulata infection in sheep and ixodid ticks in Iran.
A molecular study was undertaken to detect Theileria ovis, Theileria lestoquardi and Theileria annulata in sheep and tick vectors. Investigation was conducted from 2010 to 2011 in the south of Khorasan Razavi Province, Iran. A total of 150 blood samples were collected from 30 different sheep flocks. In addition, ixodid ticks were sampled from the same flocks. The stained blood smears were micro...
