In order to examine the risk of Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection in humans, 76 Ixodes ricinus ticks and 3 Dermacentor reticulatus removed from humans were examined for the presence of Anaplasma phagocytophilum by PCR targeting the16S rRNA gene. The average infection rate was 23.7% (18/76) in Ixodes ricinus ticks. A very high infection rate reaching 36.8% (14/38) was detected in female Ixodes ricinus, followed by males – 16.6% and nymphs – 10.5%. No infection was noted in larvae. All Dermacentor reticulatus also tested negative. The positive PCR products were sequenced and deposited in the Gen Bank (Accession No. DQ006828).
Ixodes ricinus, the most commonly observed tick species in Poland, is a known vector of such pathogenic microorganisms as TBE viruses, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lata, Anaplasma phagoeytophilum, Rickettsia helvetica, Babesia divergens and B. microti in our country. Our study aimed to find out whether this tick can also transmit other babesiae of medical and veterinary importance. DNA extracts of 1392 ticks (314 nymphs, 552 male and 526 female ticks) collected in urban and rural areas in the Pomerania province (northern Poland), were examined by nested PCR for the detection of Babesia spp., using outer primers: 5-22F and 1661R, and inner primers: 455-479F and 793-772R, targeting specific fragment of 18S rRNA gene. Overall, at least 1.6% ticks were found to be infected with babesial parasites. In the case of nymphs, the minimal prevalence was 0.6%, and it was approx. 3-times lower than in adults (1.9%). Percentages of infected males and females were comparable (2.0% vs. 1.7%). Sequences of 15/22 PCR-derived fragments of 18S rRNA gene demonstrated 100% similarities with the sequence of Babesia EU1 (proposed name B. venatorum) (acc. no. AY046575) (n= 13) and with B. cards canis (acc. no. AY321119) (n = 2), deposited in the GenBank database. The partial 18S rDNA sequences of Babesia EU1 and B. c. canis obtained by us from I. ricinus have been deposited in GenBank, accession nos. GQ325619 and GQ325620, respectively. The results obtained suggest the possible role of I. ricinus as a source of microorganisms, which have been identified as agents of human and canine babesiosis, respectively, in Europe. To our knowledge this is the first report on the occurrence of Babesia EU1 and B. c. canis in I. ricinus in Poland.
Species composition Anophelini were investigated in the years 1986/87 and Culicini in 1987/88 at the part of the coastal region. The mosquitoes were caught from April till October, every week, at 47 stations (water reservoires, free nature and cattle-sheds). Total 16194 mosquitoes (2452 Anophelini and 13742 Culicini) were caught. They belong to 26 species of 5 genera: Anopheles (4 spp.), Aedes (15 spp.), Coquillettidia (1 sp.), Culex (1 sp.) and Culiseta (5 spp.). The highest numbers of Anophelini were observed in July (1986) and in September (1987). The agressiveness toward man showed by Culicini was found to be highest in the second half of May and at the end of July.
In the paper results of load capacity gang nail joints test are presented. Joined members were made of birch and alder LVL and of solid pine wood. The higher load capacity was obtained for joints members made of LVL birch. The lowest result were for joints of solid pine wood.
