Anaplasma
This document discusses anaplasmosis, a disease caused by Anaplasma bacteria that infects the red blood cells of ruminants. It is transmitted by ticks and insects. Clinical signs in mature cattle include fever, anemia, yellow urine, depression, rapid breathing, loss of appetite, decreased milk production, and occasional aggression. Diagnosis can be made by examining blood smears under a microscope or through serological tests. Control involves treating infected animals with antibiotics like oxytetracycline and preventing transmission by ticks and insects.
