摘要
We developed and evaluated two nested polymerase chain reaction (nPCR) assays for the diagnosis of Babesia bovis infection in cattle based on two membrane protein genes from B bows BBOV IV005650 (BV5650) and BBO_IV008970 (BV8970) The specificities and sensitivities of the tests were compared with B bovis Rhoptery associated protein 1 gene (RAP-1) nPCR. The specificity of the tests was 100% for B bovis DNA The sensitivities of nPCR to B bows from the in vitro cultured parasites were as low as 10(-8)% 10(-6)% and 10(-7)% parasitemia for BV5650 BV8970 and RAP-1 nPCR, respectively The nPCR detected as little as 1 fg genomic DNA per test for BV5650 and 100 fg per test for both BV8970 and RAP-1 genes For field applications the sensitivity was evaluated to a total of 165 field samples from Ghana Mongolia Brazil and Japan The nPCR assay of BV5650 was the most sensitive for the detection of B bovis from the field samples The BV5650 nPCR assay provides a good diagnostic tool for laboratory diagnostic assessment of B bovis infection in cattle worldwide (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
