Ultrastructure of Ehrlichia canis [PDF]
The ultrastructure of Ehrlichia canis was examined in both pulmonary mononuclear cells and in monocytes cultured from an infected dog. The cytoplasmic inclusions, or morulae, of E. canis consisted of a membrane-lined vacuole-containing elementary bodies which varied in size and number.

Ehrlichia canis Vaccine Development: Challenges and Advances. [PDF]
Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis (CME) is an infectious disease caused by Ehrlichia canis, a globally recognized obligate intracellular bacterium. In addition to dogs, other animals, including humans, may be affected. Despite its epidemiological importance and impact on public health, there is currently no commercial vaccine against E. canis.

Antigenic and Genomic Relatedness among Ehrlichia risticii, Ehrlichia sennetsu, and Ehrlichia canis [PDF]
Antigenic and genomic relatedness among Ehrlichia risticii, E. sennetsu, and E. canis was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Western blotting (immunoblotting) and DNA-DNA hybridization. E. risticii and E. sennetsu were serologically related, and their Western blot antigen profiles were nearly identical. Two antigens of E.
