title: Treatment of bovine tropical theileriosis with buparvaquone.
abstract: The antitheilerial activity of buparvaquone in crossbred male calves, experimentally infected with Theileria annulata (Izatnagar isolate) has been tested. Animals were treated intramuscularly at the dose rate of 2.5 mg/kg1 body weight. A single dose of the drug administered during the phase of ascending parasitaemia cured all the infected calves while all the untreated infected control calves died.
