Detection of bartonella DNA in ixodid ticks, mosquitoes and in patients blood in Novosibirsk region

https://doi.org/10.20538/1682-0363-2006--106-110

Abstract

Bartonella DNA was detected using nested PCR in ticks Ixodes persulcatus and Dermacentor reticulatus, in mosquitoes Aedes cantans, but not in other mosquito or gnat species. Phylogenic analysis of the PCR product nucleotide sequences proved the infec- tion of arthropod vectors and human blood with Bartonella henselae, Bartonella quintana or their mixed infection in Novosibirsk region.
