  • Title: The inability of a South African Babesia bovis vaccine strain to infect Boophilus microplus.
    Author: Mason TE, Potgieter FT, van Rensburg L.
    Journal: Onderstepoort J Vet Res; 1986 Sep; 53(3):143-5. PubMed ID: 3763166.
    Abstract:
    A strain of Babesia bovis that had been attenuated by rapid syringe passage through a series of 23 splenectomized calves was unable to infect its vector Boophilus microplus. An attempt to transmit the attenuated Australian Babesia bigemina G strain with a South African strain of B. microplus was likewise unsuccessful. The epidemiological implication of these observations in terms of babesiosis control is discussed.
