Abstract

Deer keds, Lipoptena mazamae (Diptera: Hippoboscidae), were collected from white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and humans in Georgia and South Carolina, USA (1 October 2001-6 January 2005) and screened for the presence of DNA from Bartonella spp. Forty deer keds were screened for Bartonella spp. by polymerase chain reaction using primers specific to the riboflavin synthase gene (ribC) of Bartonella. Bartonella species closely related to Bartonella schoenbuchensis and to the etiologic agent of cat-scratch disease (Bartonella henselae) were detected in 10 keds and one ked, respectively.

摘要

在美国佐治亚州和南卡罗来纳州，从白尾鹿（弗吉尼亚鹿）和人类身上采集了鹿蜱蝇（Lipoptena mazamae，双翅目：虱蝇科）（2001年10月1日至2005年1月6日），并检测其中是否存在巴尔通体属的DNA。使用针对巴尔通体核黄素合酶基因（ribC）的引物，通过聚合酶链反应对40只鹿蜱蝇进行了巴尔通体属检测。分别在10只和1只鹿蜱蝇中检测到了与舍恩布赫恩巴尔通体及猫抓病病原体（汉赛巴尔通体）密切相关的巴尔通体菌种。
