ABSTRACT A 1‐year‐old female‐intact arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) presented for diarrhea, lethargy, severe thrombocytopenia, and hyperbilirubinemia. Blood film evaluation revealed intracytoplasmic coccoid bacteria within moderate numbers of leukocytes consistent with infection by a rickettsial organism.

Abstract Ehrlichia canis, E equi, and E risticii seroprevalence was determined by microimmunofluorescent antibody testing (IFA) in a sequential population of 1,845 sick dogs admitted during a 1-year period to the North Carolina State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital. A seroreactor was defined by a reciprocal IFA titer of ≥80 to

Summary Precursor‐targeted immune‐mediated anaemia (PIMA) is an increasingly recognised cause of nonregenerative anaemia in dogs and may be difficult to distinguish from infectious or other immune‐mediated conditions. This report describes a dog presenting severe nonregenerative anaemia, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, initially testing seroreactive ...

Abstract A 5‐year‐old, spayed, female Shiba Inu was presented with a 6‐week history of reduced appetite, lethargy and generalised stiffness, which showed only limited improvement despite anti‐inflammatory treatment. The most significant clinical abnormalities were pyrexia, stiffness, pain on joint manipulation and cutaneous lesions. Laboratory findings

Seroprevalence of Ehrlichia canis and of Canine Granulocytic Ehrlichia Infection in Dogs in Switzerland [PDF]
ABSTRACT Serum samples from 996 dogs in Switzerland were examined for antibodies to Ehrlichia canis and to the agent causing canine granulocytic ehrlichiosis (CGE). Ehrlichiosis, borreliosis, and systemic illness not associated with ticks were suspected in 75, 122, and 157 of these dogs, respectively.

Reactivity of Ehrlichia Hsp60 antibody.
The Ehrlichia Hsp60 43–63 peptide was sensitive in detecting different dilutions of the Ehrlichia Hsp60 antibody. The Ehrlichia Hsp60 (250ng) was probed with different dilutions of Ehrlichia Hsp60 specific sera or sera from naïve mice.

Structure-based vaccines provide protection in a mouse model of ehrlichiosis. [PDF]
Recent advances in bioinformatics have made it possible to predict the B cell and T cell epitopes of antigenic proteins. This has led to design of peptide based vaccines that are more specific, safe, and easy to produce. The obligately intracellular gram
