Growth-inhibitory effects of artesunate, pyrimethamine, and pamaquine against Babesia equi and Babesia caballi in in vitro cultures.
Three antimalarial drugs, artesunate, pyrimethamine, and pamaquine, were evaluated for their growth-inhibitory effects against Babesia equi and Babesia caballi in in vitro culture. B. equi was more resistant to pyrimethamine than B. caballi. B. equi was also found to be more sensitive to artesunate and pamaquine than B. caballi. Of the three compounds, pyrimethamine gave the most promise for in...

متن کاملIsolation of pure Babesia equi and Babesia caballi organisms in splenectomized horses from endemic areas in South Africa.
Both Babesia equi and Babesia caballi are endemic in large parts of South Africa. Attempts were made to obtain pure local isolates of both B. equi and B. caballi for the purpose of developing serological tests to study the epidemiology of equine babesiosis in this country. The indirect fluorescent antibody test was used to screen horses for B. equi and B. caballi in an endemic area. Seven horse...
