Rickettsial hemolysis: rapid method for enumeration of metabolically active typhus rickettsiae.

T S Walker, H H Winkler.   

Abstract

A new assay is described for enumerating biologically active typhus rickettsiae (Madrid E strain), based on adsorption of rickettsiae to erythrocytes in the presence of NaF (which allows adsorption but not lysis) and lysis in the presence of anti-Rickettsia prowazeki immune serum (which allows only a single round of lysis). The number of lysed erythrocytes is then used to estimate the number of active rickettsiae.
