Mediterranean Spotted Fever And Other Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiae

View through CrossRef
Abstract The spotted fever group of rickettsiae consists of 22 serotypes, or species, of Gram-negative, strictly intracellular bacteria which are associated with ticks and have common antigenic properties. Six strains isolated from patients are recognized as pathogens, while nine others have been isolated only from ticks and are considered to be organisms of unknown pathogenicity. The other four pathogenic serotypes and six tick-isolates which have been described are yet to be officially included in the spotted fever group.
