First report of Rickettsia raoultii in field collected Dermacentor reticulatus ticks from Austria
In a set of pooled field collected Dermacentor reticulatus ticks, Rickettsia raoultii, the causative agent of Tick-borne lymphadenopathy/Dermacentor-borne necrosis erythema and lymphadenopathy, was found for the first time in Austria. The coordinates of the positive locations for tick and pathogen abundance are given and shown in a map.

In Vitro Propagation of Candidatus Rickettsia andeanae Isolated From Amblyomma maculatum [PDF]
Candidatus Rickettsia andeanae was identified during an investigation of a febrile outbreak in northwestern Peru (2002). DNA sequencing from two ticks (Amblyomma maculatum, Ixodes boliviensis) collected during the investigation revealed a novel ...

Spotted fever rickettsiosis caused by Rickettsia raoultii – case report
We report the case of rickettsial eschar-associated spotted fever, most probable due to Rickettsia raoultii, an emerging pathogen, which was previously described in patients with tick-borne lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA), also called Dermacentor-borne necrosis erythema and lymphadenopathy (DEBONEL). The pathogenicity of R.

Tick cell lines play an important role in research on ticks and tick-borne pathogenic and symbiotic microorganisms. In an attempt to derive continuous Dermacentor reticulatus cell lines, embryo-derived primary cell cultures were set up from eggs laid by field ticks originally collected as unfed adults in The Netherlands and maintained for up to 16 ...

Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiae in Ticks, Germany
To explore increased risk for human Rickettsia spp. infection in Germany, we investigated recreational areas and renatured brown coal surface-mining sites (also used for recreation) for the presence of spotted fever group rickettsiae in ticks.

During the hunting season 2007-2008, 494 Dermacentor marginatus (Sulzer) ticks were collected from 109 hunter-killed wild boars, Sus scrofa, in Lucca's province, Tuscany, Italy. Rickettsia slovaca, the causative agent of tick-borne lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA), was detected in 32.1% of ticks tested (n=112) by using polymerase chain reaction primers ...

Molecular characterisation of microorganisms within the stump-tailed lizard tick, Amblyomma albolimbatum, in Western Australia [PDF]
Ticks pose a major threat to the health and wellbeing of humans, domesticated animals and wildlife. Recently, a bacterial community study (16S rRNA) on the stump-tailed lizard tick, Amblyomma albolimbatum, removed from bobtails, Tiliqua rugosa, in ...
