Gamma irradiation on bovine serum and red blood cells (RBC) allows proliferation and growth of in vitro-cultured Babesia sp., and has potential application to inactivate contaminating viruses and bacteria from the substrate. Gamma irradiation with 25 kGy in a source of (60)Co was able to inactivate
This review presents a comprehensive picture of the zoonotic parasitic diseases in Egypt, with particular reference to their relative prevalence among humans, animal reservoirs of infection, and sources of human infection. A review of the available literature indicates that many parasitic zoonoses
