Cross reactivity between Anaplasma marginale and two Plasmodium species as demonstrated by passive hemagglutination.
Two types of antigens were prepared from each of 3 partially purified preparations of Anaplasma marginale, Plasmodium lophurae, and P berghei. Hemagglutination tests were conducted with homologous serums to detect antigenic relationships between these organisms. Serums were also absorbed with both homologous and heterologous antigen preparations. Cross reactivity between these organisms was observed.
