dc.description.abstractMicroscopic detection and morphological identification of parasites from clinical specimens are the gold standards for laboratory diagnosis of parasitic infections. The limitations of such diagnostic assays include insufficient sensitivity and operator dependence. lmmunoassays for parasitic antigens are not available for most parasitic infections and have not significantly improved the sensitivity of laboratory detection. Advances in molecular detection by nucleic acid ampliļ¬cation may improve the detection in asymptomatic infections with low parasitic burden. Rapidly accumulating genomic data on parasites allow the design of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers directed towards multi-copy gene targets, such as the ribosomal and mitochondrial genes, which further improve the sensitivity and specificity (Wong et aI.2014).Protozoan parasites are responsible for causing severe infections both in humans and animals worldwide and the infection is mainly transmitted by arthropod vectors or through blood transfusion. The important hemoprotozoan diseases of veterinary importance are trypanosomosis, theileriosis, babesiosis and anaplasmosis, which are caused by several species of Trypanosoma, Theileria, Babesia and Anaplasma, respectively, in livestock (Singh et al. 2007). The impact of these diseases on health and productivity of farm animals is hugeen_US
