...l changes (due to bovine anaplasmosis) were studied in Sahiwal cattle and crossbred cattle of the district Faisalabad of Punjab province, Pakistan. Therapeutic efficiency of Oxytetracycline-Imidocarb dipropionate combination was compared with Enrofloxacin-Imidocarb dipropionate against Anaplasma marginale (A. marginale). For this study, the blood samples of three hundred and sixty nine cattle were collected. Giemsa stain of blood smears showed 10...

...ont-size: small;">Bovine anaplasmosis is an infectious tick-borne disease caused by a rickettsial parasite Anaplasma marginale. This study investigated the prevalence of A. marginale in cattle on different commercial farms in subtropical conditions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). A total of 120 cattle from different farms were randomly sampled and tested for the presence of A. marginale between May to August 2016....

... 14.4, 10.4 and 7.2% for anaplasmosis, theileriosis and babesiosis, respectively. Different risk factors were studied but statistical significant changes (p<0.05) were observed in prevalence of haemo-parasitic diseases with respect to season, breed, specie, age and sex. Hematological profile of diseased animals showed significant decrease (p<0.05) in TEC, Hb, PCV, MCH and MCV while no significant changes (p>0.05) were observed in MCHC and TLC. On basi...

...osis 46.13%, followed by anaplasmosis 29.13%, mixed infection 17.66% while the lowest prevalence was recorded for babesiosis which is 7.06%. Seasonal wise overall prevalence was recorded highest in monsoon 48.69%, 52.46% followed by summer 34.34%, 30.49% and winter 16.95%, 17.04% for sheep and goat respectively. High prevalence of hemoprotozoan was recorded in unorganized farm as compared to organized farm for both species’ sheep and goats. The present s...

...ence of ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis in 127 dogs collected from Rayong province, Thailand. To confirm the identification of these two pathogens, PCR was performed to detect the citrate synthase (gltA) gene followed by sequencing. In addition, the haematological responses of dogs infected with E. canis and A. platys were evaluated. By PCR, 22.8% (95%CI: 15.9-31.1) of the dog samples in this population were positive for one or both pathogens. Of these dogs, 18....
