Optimization of the in vitro feeding of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus nymphae for the transmission of Theileria parva
An apparatus for artificial feeding of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus nymphae was modified to improve feeding performance. Heparinized blood was supplied above a treated artificial membrane while the ticks attached below on its undersurface. The feeding apparatus was incubated at 37 °C in an atmospher...
