Babesia sp. infection in laboratory-reared mice obtained from Babesia sp. infection in Rattus tanizumi collected from Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija and Calamba, Laguna
Establishment of Babesia sp. in laboratory-reared mice from infections in field rats was attained in two experiments. In the first experiment, Babesia sp. parasitized blood from Rattus tanizumi collected in Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija was inoculated into Swiss albino mice. Infection was established...
