Real Time PCR Detection Kit Babesia vulpes

The Real Time PCR detection Kit Babesia vulpes comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Babesia vulpes detection by using qPCR.

GENERAL INFORMATION:Babesia (also called Nuttallia) is a genus of protozoan apicomplexan piroplasms that infect the blood and cause a parasitic, haemolytic disease known as babesiosis. After trypanosomes, Babesia is thought to be the second most common blood parasites of mammals. Babesia vulpes (formerly Theileria annae) is an organism capable of infecting dogs and foxes. It is transmitted by tick bites and can become a serious problem when endemic. There is a high prevalence of B. vulpes in red foxes across Europe, indicating foxes may act as a reservoir for this parasite.
