Abstract
In the reaction ofBos taurus cattle to infestation by the tickBoophilus microplus, mast cell histamine is translocated by the eosinophils to the attachment site. The concentration pattern of this cutaneous mediator for pain appears related to the grooming behaviour of the host.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
