The Southeast region of Portugal, particularly the Guadiana valley, is currently the reintroduction territory of Lynx pardinus (Iberian lynx), one of the most endangered felids in the world that is only found in the Iberian Peninsula. Over the last century, populations have declined, placing L. pardinus at extremely high risk of extinction in the wild and […]

A field evaluation of an isothermal DNA amplification assay for the detection of Theileria annulata infection in cattle

  • Autores: Amaro A, Gomes J, Inácio J, Pereira da Fonseca I, Santos M, Santos-Gomes G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2017
  • Journal: Molecular and Cellular Probes

A loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay was evaluated for the detection of Theileria annulata infection in cattle. The results were compared with a real-time PCR used for the quantification of T. annulata parasitaemia. One hundred bovine blood samples from 16 cattle farms were tested with LAMP and real-time PCR, with T. annulata DNA being detected in 66% […]
