The Prevalence of the Q-fever Agent Coxiella burnetii in Ticks Collected from an Animal Shelter in Southeast Georgia
… to detect the Q-fever agent in these ticks, a nested PCR technique targeting the 16S rDNA of Coxiella burnetii was used. A collection of 450 ticks from the animal shelter were screened via nested PCR and 144 (32%) were positives. The positive PCR products were also confirmed by DNA sequencing. …

Screening for Pathogenic Escherichia Coli in the Chattahoochee River, Columbus, Georgia
… above and below wastewater outputs. We used PCR to test for the individual subtypes and then used a nested PCR protocol for the human, bovine, and avian ETEC. Our results show that most isolated <em>E. coli</em> strains are not 0157:H7 or ETEC. However, nested PCR specific for human …
