Q fever

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 1993
Q fever is an acute febrile illness first described in 1935 and now seen in many parts of the world. Human infection follows exposure to animals, especially domestic livestock. Recent outbreaks in metropolitan areas have implicated cats as the carrier of disease to humans.

Clinically and histologically silent Q fever endocarditis accidentally diagnosed by PCR [PDF]

, 2002
A case of Q fever endocarditis was diagnosed in a patient with no sign of active endocarditis by performing PCR targeting eubacterial 16S rDNA on the resected mitral valve. The diagnosis was confirmed by detection of high levels of anti-Coxiella burnetti

Immunisation with purified Coxiella burnetii phase I lipopolysaccharide confers partial protection in mice independently of co-administered adenovirus vectored vaccines [PDF]

, 2023
Q fever is a highly infectious zoonosis caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Coxiella burnetii. The worldwide distribution of Q fever suggests a need for vaccines that are more efficacious, affordable, and does not induce severe adverse reactions in ...

Diagnosis of Q Fever [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1998
My colleagues and I compliment Dr. Fournier and coauthors on an excellent review (3). However, we were surprised to read the statement that there is no commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the serological detection of Q fever, since papers describing these assays have been published (1, 2, 4).
