Exit of Anaplasma marginale from bovine red blood cells.
Incubation of Anaplasma marginale-infected bovine red blood cells in a flow culture system resulted in a decrease of observable marginal bodies. The decrease was twice the degree of hemolysis, indicating that marginal bodies may leave red blood cells without concomitant lysis of the host cell.
