Besnoitia besnoiti, an economically important disease in cattle in many countries of Africa and Asia is re-emerging in Europe. Serological identification of infected cattle is important because introduction of these animals into naive herds seems to play a major role in the transmission of the parasite. We report new, simplified immunoblot-based serological tests for the detection of B. besnoiti specific antibo...
Besnoitia besnoiti was in vitro isolated during the first recorded outbreak of bovine besnoitiosis in Germany. Molecular characterization of the new isolate, named Bb-GER1, revealed almost 100% identity with other B. besnoiti isolates obtained in Portugal, Spain, Israel or South Africa, when partial sequences of the 18S ribosomal RNA gene, of the internal transcribed spacer 1 and of the 5.8S RNA gene were compa...
