Rickettsia felis infection in cat fleas Ctenocephalides felis felis [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2010 The present study evaluated the rickettsial infection in a laboratory colony of cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis felis (Bouche) in Brazil. All flea samples (30 eggs, 30 larvae, 30 cocoons, 30 males, and 30 females) tested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were shown to contain rickettsial DNA. PCR products, corresponding to the rickettsial gltA, htrA,

Rickettsia felis in Ctenocephalides felis felis from Five Geographic Regions of Brazil [PDF]
The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2014 This study evaluated rickettsial infection in 701 Ctenocephalides felis felis fleas that were collected from dogs and cats in 31 municipalities, encompassing all regions and major biomes of Brazil. A total of 268 (38.2%) fleas from 30 municipalities were polymerase chain reaction (PCR) positive for the rickettsial gltA gene.

Variations of plasmid content in Rickettsia felis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 BACKGROUND: Since its first detection, characterization of R. felis has been a matter of debate, mostly due to the contamination of an initial R. felis culture by R. typhi. However, the first stable culture of R.
