Abstract. This study describes transmission experiments using Hammondia heydorni-like oocysts isolated in 1996 from a naturally infected dog. The isolate was designated as H. heydorni-Berlin-1996. Examination of sera from infected intermediate hosts showed immunoblot reactions that resembled patterns observed after Neospora caninum NC-1 infection. Furthermore, N. caninum DNA could be demonstrated in tissue samples (e.g. heart, brain) of experimentally infected intermediate hosts and in oocyst… CONTINUE READING
