Identification of Rickettsiae from Ticks Collected in the Central African Republic Using the Polymerase Chain Reaction

1 Mar 1994

Abstract excerpt

Spotted fever rickettsiosis have been identified on the African continent since their historical description in 1909. However, only Rickettsia conorii and R. africae have been described in Africa, and the current techniques for the detection of rickettsiae in ticks are difficult to apply in large field studies. We report here a preliminary study using genomic amplification by the polymerase chain reaction...
