چکیده
This study assessed the efficiency of a new in vitro tick feeding system for adult Rhipicephalus appendiculatus and compared impact different blood anticoagulating factors on their process. A total 10 feeders were each seeded with 30 or 60 R. adults. Bovine was added into unit changed every 12 h 4 to days during which attachment engorgement assessed. The observed after 80.0% (48/60), 75.8% (182/240), 70.8% (170/240) lithium heparin, citrate phosphate dextrose, defibrinated blood, respectively, no significant difference (p > 0.05) between anticoagulants used. However, ticks fed heparinized reached repletion status. successfully used feed until repletion. could be facilitate studies tick-pathogen interactions, such as those involved East Coast fever disease.

In vitro feeding assays for hard ticks.
Prevention of tick bites and transmission of tick-borne pathogens requires the use of molecules that target physiological processes crucial to both tick and pathogen survival. These molecules are best tested in standardized in vitro assays. Because hard ticks require several days to feed to repletion, the development of in vitro feeding assays for these species is challenging. A standard and ea...

Effects of anti-tick cocktail vaccine against Rhipicephalus appendiculatus.
Rhipicephalus appendiculatus serpin-3 (RAS-3), R. appendiculatus serpin-4 (RAS-4) and a 36-kDa immuno-dominant protein of R. appendiculatus (RIM36) were reported as candidate antigens for the anti-tick vaccine to control ixodid ticks. In the present study, we generated recombinant proteins of RAS-3 (rRAS-3), RAS-4 (rRAS-4) and RIM36 (rRIM36), and assessed their potency as an anti-tick cocktail ...

Changes in serum gamma globulin levels, numbers of replete female ticks and engorged tick mass were used as parameters to monitor the acquired immune response (antibody mediated immune response) elicited by Rhipicephalus appendiculatus adult tick infestations. Three consecutive Rhipicephalus appendiculatus adult tick infestations were applied to South African Indigenous goats (Nguni), Saanen go...
