Abstract

Recently, a new molecular diagnostic technique for tick borne pathogens has been developed and is called Reverse Line Blotting. This paper outlines the basis of this method and then illustrates its use for the analysis of blood samples obtained from Ugandan cattle and buffalo. The sensitivity and the specificity are discussed in relation to the use of this technique in the Maghreb.
