The persistence of Theileria parva infection in cattle immunised using two stocks which differ in their ability to induce a carrier state: Analysis using a novel blood spot PCR assay
An improved Theileria parva DNA detection assay based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using primers derived from the 104 kDa antigen (p104) gene was developed to detect parasite DNA in blood spots on filter paper. The specificity of the assay was validated using DNA from a wide range of cattl...
