“…Since Khuzestan is known as an endemic site for both of bovine and ovine theileriosis and also these animals are raised together in some part of this province, our finding about mixed infection of T. lestoquardi and T. annulata in sheep in this area is reasonable. The presence of antibodies against T. annulata has been demonstrated in naturally infected Sudanese sheep sera by IFAT (Salih et al 2003).…”

“…However, field application for these techniques is not documented, possibly due to the elevated application costs. The indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) based on T. lestoquardi schizont antigen has been described (Hawa et al 1981;Leemans et al 1997;Salih et al 2003;Taha et al 2003), however, its vast limitations render its routine use in large scale epidemiological surveys impractical. These limitations are mainly due to its tediousness, the subjectivity of the results obtained, and the absence of a means to standardize, thus making the test unsuitable for automation.…”

“…Moreover, antibodies against T. annulata have 312 been detected in sera of naturally infected sheep (Salih et al, 2003 (Brown et al, 1998). Additionally, it has been reported that T. annulata mixed infection of these two species were detected at a lower prevalence of 6.6% than 325 single species infections (Rashidi and Razmi, 2013).…”
