| polymerase chain reaction detection of rickettsia felis-like organism in archaeopsylla erinacei (siphonaptera: pulicidae) from bavaria, germany. | fleas occur as ectoparasites of vertebrates around the world. the obligate intracellular bacterium rickettsia felis has been detected globally in several flea species, causing a murine-typhus like disease in humans. in this study, a total of 150 hedgehog fleas (archaeopsylla erinacei bouché) were collected from 18 hedgehogs coming from four locations in southern germany for the detection of r. felis. individual dna extracts were tested with polymerase chain reaction (pcr) for the amplification o ... | 2009 | 19496444 |
