Abstract

Endocarditis and vascular infections are common manifestations of persistent localized infection due to Coxiella burnetii , and recently, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was proposed as an alternative tool for their diagnosis. In this study, we evaluated the efficiency of FISH in a series of valve and vascular samples infected by C. burnetii .

• Remis de Noël ? Alors regardons le cinquième article analysé par le rapport d’AMU. Pour une fois, il n’y avait pas besoin d’une autorisation de CPP puisqu’il s’agissait d’échantillons de diagnostics. [bsky, 24 points, 1 comments]
