Anaplasma ovisinfection in goat flocks around Gaborone, Botswana
Berthelsson, Jessica; Ramabu, Solomon Stephen; Lysholm, Sara; Aspán, Anna; Wensman, Jonas Johansson (Springer, 2019-08-13)Anaplasma is a genus of gram-negative, intracellular bacteria infecting different blood cells in animals. A. ovis infects erythrocytes of sheep and goats, inducing clinical signs that include haemolytic anaemia, icterus ... -
First-time detection of bovine viral diarrhoea virus, BVDV-1, in cattle in Botswana
Berg, Mikael; Ramabu, Solomon Stephen; Lysholm, Sara (AOSIS [Commercial Publisher], 2019-01-01)Infectious diseases are serious constraints for improving livestock productivity. Bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) is a virus causing grave economic losses throughout the cattle producing world. Infection is often not ... -
Identification of Anaplasma marginale proteins specifically upregulated during colonization of the tick vector
Ramabu, Solomon Stephen; Ueti, Massaro W.; Brayton, Kelly A.; Baszler, Timothy V.; Palmer, Guy H. (American Society for Microbiology, 2010-07-10)The transition between infection of the mammalian host and colonization of an arthropod vector is required for the ongoing transmission of a broad array of pathogens, from viruses to protozoa. Understanding how this ... -
Identification of anaplasma marginale proteins up-regulated during infection of the tick vector
Ramabu, Solomon Stephen (Washington State University, 2010-08)The transition between infection of the mammalian host and colonization of an arthropod vector is required for ongoing transmission of a broad array of pathogens, from viruses to protozoa. Understanding how this transition ... -
Some potential sources for transmission of Campylobacterjejuni to broiler chickens
Ramabu, Solomon Stephen; Boxall, N.S.; Madie, P.; Fenwick, S.G. (Wiley, 2004-05-20)S.S. R AMA B U, N.S. B OXA L L, P. MA DIE A N D S. G. FE NWI CK. 2004. Aims: The aim of the study was to determine Campylobacter jejuni contamination and prevalence on fomites moving between broiler farms and the processing ... -
Transmission of campylobacter Jejuni in broiler chickens
Ramabu, Solomon Stephen (Massey University, Palmerston North, 2002)Investigations were carried out aimed at identifying potential sources of transmission of Campylobacter jejuni to broiler chickens, determining whether boots can mechanically transmit C. jejuni to susceptible chickens, ... -
xpression of Anaplasma marginale Ankyrin Repeat-Containing Proteins during Infection of the Mammalian Host and Tick Vector
Ramabu, Solomon Stephen; Schneider, David A.; Brayton, Kelly A.; Ueti, Massaro W.; Grac¸a, Telmo; Futse, James E.; Noh, Susan M.; Baszler, Timothy V.; Palmer, Guy H. (American Society for Microbiology, 2011)Transmission of tick-borne pathogens requires transition between distinct host environments with infection and replication in host-specific cell types. Anaplasma marginale illustrates this transition: in the mammalian host, ...
