Real-time PCR-based prevalence study, infection follow-up and molecular characterization of canine hemotropic mycoplasmas

Hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) have been reported in several mammalian species including dogs. Infections may lead to hemolytic anemia, but investigations in the dog had been hampered by the lack of adequate diagnostic methods. Only recently sensitive PCR-based assays were reported for the two...
