Transmission of babesia

Babesia canis is mainly transmitted by hard ticks, and ticks transmit Babesia canis mostly by egg transmission and stinging. The main vectors of Babesia canis are the blood red tick, the two spined blood tick and the long horned blood tick. Babesia canis is not only parasitised in diseased dogs, but also in carrier dogs for a long period of time. Therefore, sick dogs, carrier dogs and hard ticks are the source of the pathogen of canine babesiosis.

Clinical diagnosis of babesiosis test

The first step is to confirm whether the sick dog has a history of being bitten by a tick or whether a tick has been caught on its body according to the clinical manifestations. A preliminary diagnosis can be made on the basis of the presence of a tick bite or a tick on the body of the dog and the clinical signs of the dog.

Subsequently, laboratory tests are conducted using faecal examination, routine urine examination, routine blood examination, collection of venous blood from the sick dog for smear, Rachel’s solution staining and examination, and the diagnosis can be confirmed if the worm is found in the erythrocytes. However, if no worm is detected and the disease is still suspected, drugs can be used for diagnostic treatment, and the diagnosis can also be confirmed if obvious results are achieved.

Fast results are key. babesia test, developed by Antigenne, also provides accurate results in less than 10 minutes, significantly reducing waiting times and enabling pet owners and veterinarians to make quick treatment decisions.
