MODERN APPROACHES TO LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS OF RICKETTSIAL DISEASES

Abstract. We present a concise review of contemporary laboratory methods for diagnosis of rickettsioses with special emphasis on diseases known in Russian Federation. Classic and emerging rickettsioses are transmitted by a diverse and expanding group of arthropod vectors including ticks, fleas, lice...
