Nonspecific antiviral immunity by formalin-fixed Coxiella burnetii is enhanced in the absence of nitric oxide [PDF]
Mice treated with a single injection of formalin-fixed Coxiella burnetii showed a significant increase in resistance to vaccinia virus (VV) infection compared to untreated mice. C.

Q Fever and Coxiella burnetii.
Q熱はリケッチアの一種であるCoxiella burnetiiによって起こる人獣共通感染症である。本疾患は世界中に分布しているが,これまでわが国ではほとんど関心がはらわれてこなかった。1988年に国内でQ熱の患者からC.burnetiiが分離されたのを機に血清疫学的調査が開始され,わが国にもQ熱が存在していることを示す証拠が蓄積されてきた。したがって,今後はわが国においても,熱性疾患の診断に際しては本疾患を鑑別診断の一つにあげることが必要である。一方,C.burnetiiは宿主・微生物相互作用を考えるうえで興味深い多くの生物学的特徴を有している。欧米では活発な研究が行われているが,なお未解決の問題が数多く残されている。このような状況をふまえ,本稿ではC.burnetiiの特徴とQ熱のアウトライン ...

European Rabbits as Reservoir forCoxiella burnetii [PDF]
We studied the role of European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) as a reservoir for Coxiella burnetii in the Iberian region. High individual and population seroprevalences observed in wild and farmed rabbits, evidence of systemic infections, and vaginal shedding support the reservoir role of the European rabbit for C. burnetii.

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Q Fever in Smallholder Dairy Farms in Kenya
Serological and molecular screening revealed widespread exposure to Coxiella burnetii in dairy cattle, linked to reproductive and herd management risk factors. Strengthened surveillance and herd‐level biosecurity are critical to reducing Q fever transmission. ABSTRACT Background Q fever is a neglected zoonotic disease of global concern.

Detection and Genotyping of Coxiella burnetii and Coxiella-Like Bacteria in Horses in South Korea.
Coxiella burnetii and Coxiella-like bacteria (CLB) are genetically and ecologically distinct despite some genetic similarities. Furthermore, CLB are exceptionally diverse and widespread in ticks, but rarely detected in domestic animals.

Bacteriophages in whey powder processing: Sources of contamination and control strategies
This review examines the challenges bacteriophages pose to dairy powder production and evaluates traditional and innovative strategies to control them, emphasising the need for integrated, ongoing management to maintain efficient and high‐quality cheese and whey manufacture.

The infection dynamics of Coxiella (C.) burnetii were investigated in three dairy goat herds (A, B, and C) 2 years after the first pathogen detection. A total of 28 and 29 goats from herds A and B, and 35 goats from herd C, were examined.

Seroconversion for infectious pathogens among UK military personnel deployed to Afghanistan, 2008-2011. [PDF]
Military personnel are at high risk of contracting vector-borne and zoonotic infections, particularly during overseas deployments, when they may be exposed to endemic or emerging infections not prevalent in their native countries.

Rapid Typing of Coxiella burnetii
Coxiella burnetii has the potential to cause serious disease and is highly prevalent in the environment. Despite this, epidemiological data are sparse and isolate collections are typically small, rare, and difficult to share among laboratories as this pathogen is governed by select agent rules and fastidious to culture.
