This is the first report on the occurrence and isolation of a strain of Anaplasma marginale with an inclusion appendage in Brazil. The inclusion appendage presented longitudinal electron-dense striations and did not originate directly from the body of the rickettsia but from an electron-dense complex located at the junction of the inclusion membrane and inclusion appendage. The inclusion appendage remained in the host cell after the Anaplasma inclusion appeared to be leaving the red blood cell. Other ultrastructures of this rickettsia are described and its epidemiological importance is discussed.
这是关于巴西出现并分离出一株带有包涵体附属物的边缘无形体的首次报告。该包涵体附属物呈现纵向电子致密条纹，并非直接起源于立克次氏体主体，而是源自位于包涵体膜与包涵体附属物交界处的一个电子致密复合体。在无形体包涵体似乎正离开红细胞后，该包涵体附属物仍留在宿主细胞内。本文描述了这种立克次氏体的其他超微结构，并讨论了其流行病学重要性。
