摘要: Attempts were made to isolate Neospora caninum from naturally infected water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) Brazil. Brains six with indirect fluorescent antibodies (>1:100) N. used the parasite by bioassay in dogs and gerbils followed vitro culture. Shedding of Neospora-like oocysts was noticed fed brains three (isolate designation NcBrBuf-1, 2 4). Two more isolates (NcBrBuf-3 5) obtained culture previously two other buffaloes. The identity confirmed biological molecular methods. found be non-pathogenic gerbils. All five amplified gene 5 amplicons using Neospora-specific PCR assay. sequences fragments common toxoplasmatiid ITS-1 analyzed. dynamics oocyst production indicate that are natural intermediate hosts for caninum. This is first report isolation
