欧洲最近报告了新的人类巴贝斯虫病病例。病原体被鉴定为巴贝西亚Eu1，一种人畜共患病病原体，具有以前未报道的分子特征。通过对18S rRNA基因全序列的比较，我们得到了斯洛文尼亚蓖麻硬蜱感染Eu1的强有力的分子证据。
New cases of human babesiosis were recently reported in Europe. The etiological agent was identified as Babesia EU1, a zoonotic pathogen with previously unreported molecular characteristics. On the basis of a comparison of the complete babesial 18S rRNA gene, we have generated strong molecular evidence that Ixodes ricinus ticks from Slovenia are infected with EU1.
