Abstract: | Two groups of five cattle were immunised with a field isolate of Theileria parva as stabilate and simultaneously treated with long acting oxytetracycline or parvaquone in early clinical disease. The oxytetracycline group suffered a marked fall in leucocyte count and one animal died during immunisation. The parvaquone group suffered a less severe fall in leucocyte count and all survived. The surviving immunised cattle were immune to homologous challenge but susceptible to subsequent challenge with T p lawrencei. |
