study on the effects of different temperatures on protein changes in the salivary glands of hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum and boophilus annulatus

It was determined whether ambient temperature influences the proteins produced by salivary glands of Hyalomma anatolicum analolicum and Boophilus annulatus. Unfed adults of H. anatolicum anatolicum and partly fed female adult of B. annulatus were subjected to different temperatures [4, 15, 28 and 42 C] and proteins in soluble denatured salivary gland extracts [SGE] analysed by SDS-PAGE. The authors noticed changes during different temperatures but 29, 55, and 97 KDa protein bands remained unchanged at all temperatures of two species and in B. annulatus 29, 36, 55, 66, 84, 97 and 205 KDa proteins were constant
