Abstract

Canine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease that is caused by the haemoprotozoan parasites of the genus Babesia (Taboada and Merchant, 1991). There are limited data of serum proteomics in dogs, and none of babesiosis. The aim of this study was to identify the potential serum biomarkers using proteomic techniques and to increase our understanding about disease pathogenesis.
