Validation of the in vitro model In vitro methods can improve the understanding of the vector–pathogen relationship and vector feeding behavior before the use of animals [20, 25]. They also enable a controlled assessment of VBP transmission times. Rhipicephalus sanguineus infected with E. canis demonstrated a large initial SD that decreased significantly over time, indicating … Read more
