Infective particles can be collected either as in vitro tick feed material by inducing prefed, infected ticks to salivate into capillary tubes containing foetal calf serum1, or as ground tick supernatant obtained by grinding the ticks in Eagle's minimum essential medium with Earle's salts (MEM) supplemented with bovine plasma albumin (Fraction V from bovine plasma) (BPA) and collecting the supernatant2.enhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Journal ContributionCattleLaboratoriesEast coast feverBovineshttps://doi.org/10.1038/245101a0
