Abstract:

Besnoitia besnoiti, a tissue cyst-forming coccidium, was cultivated in four tick cell lines from three Ixodidae genera (Boophilus, Dermacentor and Rhipicephalus). There was no appreciable difference in parasite proliferation in the various cell lines. The kinetics of multiplication during 4 days of cultivation did not differ in the four lines at 28 °C nor at 36 °C. The yield of parasites 4 days post infection was lower in tick cells than in Vero cells. In tick cell lines B. besnoiti had the tendency to change from banana shape to a round form. © 1988.
