Prevalence of Rickettsia felis in Ctenocephalides felis and Ctenocephalides canis from Uruguay
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006Abstract: Our aim was to determine the presence of Rickettsia spp. in 66 fleas from Uruguay. Rickettsial DNA was amplified using gltA and ompB PCR primers. Rickettsia spp. were found in 41% of the fleas (25 Ctenocephalides felis and 2 Ctenocephlides canis).

Dry blood from mammals and birds was used as larval diet for the development of the cat flea, Ctenocephalides felis felis (Bouché), in the laboratory. Diets that contained host blood and cornmeal heated at 40 degrees C for 30 min were inadequate for most larvae to form pupae. Development time from 1st instar to adult ranged from 30 to 33 d.

Selamectin was evaluated in eight controlled studies (4 in dogs, 4 in cats) to determine the efficacy of a single topical unit dose providing the recommended minimum dosage of 6mgkg(-1) against Ctenocephalides felis felis and Ctenocephalides canis fleas on dogs and against C. felis on cats.

FIRST DETECTION OF RICKETTSIA FELIS IN CTENOCEPHALIDES FELIS FLEAS PARASITIZING RATS IN CYPRUS
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2006Rickettsia felis was identified by polymerase chain reaction amplification and DNA sequencing analysis in Ctenocephalides felis fleas parasitizing rats in Cyprus. Murine typhus caused by R. typhi was believed to be the only flea-transmitted rickettsiosis on the island. This is the first report of this pathogen in southeastern Europe.

Host association, on-host longevity and egg production of Ctenocephalides felis felis
Veterinary Parasitology, 1989Host association, on-host longevity and egg production of Ctenocephalides felis felis (Bouché) were evaluated using fleas from a commercial laboratory colony and first generation, laboratory-reared, native Indiana fleas. Fleas were placed on cats that were declawed, fitted with Elizabethan collars and housed in specially designed metabolic cages.

Effects of azadirachtin on Ctenocephalides felis in the dog and the cat
Veterinary Parasitology, 1998Azadirachtin-containing neem seed extract is a powerful insect growth regulator, a feeding deterrent and repellent with low toxicity. Unfortunately, azadirachtin degrades rapidly in light, excessive heat or alkalinity. Evaluations of azadirachtin on ectoparasites on animals have been scarce.

POLYGENIC DETECTION OF RICKETTSIA FELIS IN CAT FLEAS (CTENOCEPHALIDES FELIS) FROM ISRAEL
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2006The presence of Rickettsia felis, an emerging bacterial pathogen, was investigated in 79 cat flea (Cteno-cephalides felis) pools from Israel (5 to 20 fleas each) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing of 5 different genes. Amplified targets included both metabolic (gltA and fusA) and surface antigen (ompA, ompB, and the 17-kDa antigen) genes.

Vertical transmission of Rickettsia felis in the cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis Bouché).
Journal of vector ecology : journal of the Society for Vector Ecology, 2002Rickettsia felis can be maintained in cat fleas by vertical transmission for up to 12 generations without the benefit of an infected host. Horizontal transmission or the acquisition of R. felis by fleas feeding on cats or artificially infected meals were not demonstrated in this study. Horizontal transmission of R.
