Drug Resistance and R Plasmids in Salmonella typhi Isolated in Korea [PDF]
A total of 949 strains of Salmonella typhi isolated in Korea from 1968 to 1975 were tested for drug resistance and distribution of R plasmids. Resistance was mostly restricted to streptomycin (SM) and sulfisomidine (SA), singly or in combination, at a low degree.

Cytotoxic effector functions of T cells are not required for protective immunity against fatal Rickettsia typhi infection in a murine model of infection: Role of TH1 and TH17 cytokines in protection and pathology. [PDF]
Endemic typhus caused by Rickettsia (R.) typhi is an emerging febrile disease that can be fatal due to multiple organ pathology. Here we analyzed the requirements for protection against R. typhi by T cells in the CB17 SCID model of infection. BALB/c wild-

Serological evidence of exposure to Rickettsia felis and Rickettsia typhi in Australian veterinarians [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Rickettsia felis and Rickettsia typhi are emerging arthropod-borne zoonoses causing fever and flu-like symptoms. Seroprevalence and risk factors associated with exposure to these organisms was explored in Australian veterinarians.
