<i>In vitro</i> evaluation of the automated hematology analyzer XN-31 for rapid diagnosis of equine piroplasmosis
In this study, we demonstrated that the automated hematology analyzer, XN-31, can detect red blood cells infected with <i>Babesia caballi</i> and <i>Theileria equi</i> in about 1 minute. We evaluated the diagnostic performance of the XN-31 analyzer for equine piroplasmosis, providing evidence of its potential as a diagnostic tool for this disease.
