Recent Advances in the Laboratory Diagnosis of Equine Parasitic Diseases	1995-12-31		.txt	text/plain	2073	148	53	5 • 12 • 15 Accurate antemortem diagnosis has been enhanced greatly by the recent development of the Western blot and polymerase chain reaction tests (Equine Biodiagnostics, Inc, Lexington, KY) to detect parasite-specific antibodies or parasite DNA in the blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of affected horses. neurona was developed to detect the parasite in blood or spinal fluid of affected horses.7 Amplification primers were designed from the nucleotide sequence of the 18S small ribosomal subunit gene of S. Generally, it has not been necessary to use the PCR test to confirm positive Western blot results for CSF samples. The presence of parasite DNA in an equine blood sample suggests that the horse recently ingested S. 4 , s, 9, 17 , 18 Although Cryptosporidium alone may cause foal diarrhea, it also has been associated with concurrent infection with other enteric pathogens (adenovirus, coronavirus, rotavirus, Giardia, Salmonella), 4 , 17 , 18, 19 It is im portant to consider testing for these agents as well.	./cache/cord-280249-kfon0l9h.txt	./txt/cord-280249-kfon0l9h.txt
