Assessment of weight gain and biological parameters of Rhipicephalus sanguineus females fed artificially via capillary tubes Avaliação do ganho de peso e dos parâmetros biológicos de fêmeas Rhipicephalus sanguineus alimentadas artificialmente por meio de tubos capilares
This study assesses the weight gain of partially engorged Rhipicephalus sanguineus females that were artificially fed via capillary tubes and the influence of capillary tube feeding on the biological parameters of the non-parasitic stage of the species. The ticks were sorted into four groups, each c...
