| a serologic survey of mule deer and elk in utah. | sera from mule deer (odocoileus hemionus) and elk (cervus canadensis) in central and northern utah were tested for the prevalence of antibodies to 11 diseases communicable to man or domestic livestock. antibodies to francisella tularensis (at 1:20) were found in 47 of 88 (53.4%) elk and 1 of 89 (1.1%) deer. a screening slide agglutination test for titers to brucella (at 1:20) showed two reactors in elk but none in deer sera. no positive antibody titers were obtained in tests for anaplasmosis, co ... | 1978 | 105153 |
| survey of q-fever agglutinins in birds and small rodents in northern california, 1975-76. | serum samples from 15 species of rodents and 33 species of birds were tested for agglutinins against coxiella burnetii by the microagglutination test. of 759 rodents tested, 21 (3%) were seropositive. antibody positive rodents included muskrats, ondatra zebethica, (11%), rattus spp. (10%), beechey ground squirrels, otospermophilus beecheyi, (6%), wood rats, neotoma fuscipes, (5%), and peromyscus spp. (2%). of 583 birds tested, 118 (20%) were seropositive. this included white crowned sparrows, zo ... | 1979 | 522220 |
| prevalence of coxiella burnetii (q fever) and toxoplasma gondii among dairy goats in california. | the prevalence of antibodies against coxiella burnetii and toxoplasma gondii, the causative agents of q fever and toxoplasmosis, was examined in goats to determine the extent of the potential of goats to tansfer these infections to persons. of 1,054 goats from 234 premises in california, 248 goats (24%) were seropositive for c burnetii and 246 (23%) were seropositive for t gondii. of 29 dairy goats tested, 2 (7%) were found to be shedding the q fever rickettsia in their milk; t gondii was not de ... | 1978 | 727592 |

| q fever in los angeles county. serological survey of human and bovine populations. | q fever is endemic and enzootic in los angeles county. a serological survey conducted in 1949 is compared with a current survey. infection in dairy herds is now almost universal, while the prevalence of positive complement fixation titers in man only increased from 1.2 percent to 2.3 percent (p <0.10). the relative stability in man is accounted for by the increase in temperature requirements for milk pasteurization, the decrease in consumption of raw milk and the decrease in the number of dairy ... | 1971 | 5100502 |

| antibody prevalence of eight ruminant infectious diseases in california mule and black-tailed deer (odocoileus hemionus). | we tested 276 sera from 18 free-ranging black-tailed and mule deer (odocoileus hemionus) herds in california (usa) collected from 1987 to 1991 in five biogeographical habitat types, for antibodies against eight infectious disease agents. overall antibody prevalence was 56% for anaplasma marginale, 31% for borrelia burgdorferi, 16% for bluetongue virus serotype 17, 15% for epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus, 7% for coxiella burnetii and toxoplasma gondii, respectively, and 0% for bovine leukosis ... | 1994 | 8151824 |
| q fever--california, georgia, pennsylvania, and tennessee, 2000-2001. | q fever is a zoonotic disease caused by the bacterium coxiella burnetii. the most common reservoirs are domesticated ruminants, primarily cattle, sheep, and goats. humans acquire q fever typically by inhaling aerosols or contaminated dusts derived from infected animals or animal products. its highly infectious nature and aerosol route of transmission make c. burnetii a possible agent of bioterrorism. although up to 60% of initial infections are asymptomatic, acute disease can manifest as a relat ... | 2002 | 12403408 |

| molecular evidence for a novel coxiella from argas monolakensis (acari: argasidae) from mono lake, california, usa. | argasid ticks are vectors of viral and bacterial agents of humans and animals. recent reports indicate that some ornithophilic argasids harbored rickettsial agents. a nearctic tick, argas monolakensis schwan, corwin, brown is ornithophilic and has not previously been examined for rickettsial agents. thirty adult a. monolakensis were tested by pcr for dna from rickettsia or coxiella. amplicons from a coxiella sp. that were divergent from coxiella burnetii were detected in 16/30 a. monolakensis. t ... | 2008 | 18247143 |
