title: Indirect fluorescent antibody levels in experimental Babesia divergens infections of cattle.
abstract: In splenectomised calves infected with Babesia divergens IFA titres appeared after peak parasitaemia and maximum titres were observed 35 days after infection: the IFA response of adult non-splenectomised cattle was similar. It was concluded that the absence of a spleen did not markedly inhibit the IFA response of cattle to B divergens infection.
