Babesia bovis: Effect of Albumax II and orotic acid in a low-serum in vitro culture
چکیده انگلیسی

Bovine serum is an essential factor for the continuous in vitro growth of Babesia bovis parasites. Culture media typically contain 40% (v/v) of bovine serum. In the present study assays with low-serum media were performed. The growth of B. bovis Mo7 was successively lower in media with 30%, 20% and, principally, with 10% of serum. Without serum, the parasites were not able to propagate. In media with 10% of serum, the supplementation with Albumax™ II improved visibly the growth of B. bovis at the end of each cycle. Regarding the addition of orotic acid, no considerable effect was observed in media with 20% or 10% of serum, with or without Albumax™ II. B. bovis parasites cultured in vitro in all these media maintain their typical morphology during the intraerythrocytic stages.
