Application of PCR in heartwater epidemiology por Peter, T.F., O'Callaghan, C.J., Perry, Brian D., Medley, G.F., Mahan, S.

“…However, while PCR performs well on infected ticks, it is not yet sensitive enough for single test detection of chronically infected ruminants, due to the very low levels of circulating rickesttsemia in such animals. Nevertheless, analysis of tick infections has allowed reasonably detailed investigation of transmission dynamics through the quantification of key variables such as field tick infection rate and the relative importance of adult and nymphal tick transmission. …”
