Serological typing of spotted fever group Rickettsia isolates from Zimbabwe.
Eight rickettsialike organisms were isolated in tissue culture from ticks of dogs and cattle from various areas of Zimbabwe. These isolates and a reference strain, Rickettsia conorii Simko, were tested by microimmunofluorescence against homologous and heterologous antisera raised in mice. From the titers obtained by this method, specificity differences (SPDs) were calculated between each of the...

متن کاملFatal Rickettsia conorii subsp. israelensis Infection, Israel
Underdiagnosis of fatal spotted fever may be attributed to nonspecific clinical features and insensitive acute-phase serologic studies. We describe the importance of molecular and immunohistochemical methods in establishing the postmortem diagnosis of locally acquired Israeli spotted fever due to Rickettsia conorii subsp. israelensis in a traveler returning to Israel from India.

متن کاملHigh Seroprevalence for Rickettsia rickettsii in Equines Suggests Risk of Human Infection in Silent Areas for the Brazilian Spotted Fever.
Equines play a role in the epidemiology of Brazilian spotted fever (BSF) since they are a primary host for the tick Amblyomma sculptum. We studied the seroprevalence for three species of Rickettsia in equines in four endemic (with human cases) and in four non-endemic areas (no human cases) in the Piracicaba River Basin, São Paulo, Brazil. A serological survey of 504 equines was performed: aroun...
