However, in 2009 scientists reported a technique allowing the Q-fever pathogen " Coxiella burnetii " to grow in an axenic culture and suggested the technique may be useful for study of other pathogens.
12.
For Q fever, a disease transmitted by the bacterial agent " Coxiella burnetii ", the whole of the diagnostic protocols as well on serologic as molecular biology aspects were set up at the laboratory.
13.
One of the Unit s first missions was to manage all aspects of Project CD-22, the exposure of volunteers to aerosols containing a pathogenic strain of " Coxiella burnetii ", the etiologic agent of Q fever.
14.
The standard US protocol for flash pasteurization of milk, 71.7 �C ( 161 �F ) for 15 seconds in order to kill " Coxiella burnetii " ( the most heat-resistant " E . coli"
15.
Operated by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, RML conducts research on maximum containment pathogens such as Ebola as well as research on prions and intracellular pathogens such as " Coxiella burnetti " and " Francisella tularensis ".
16.
During the time he worked on Q fever with Australian scientist E . H . Derrick, the causative organism of which was named " Coxiella burnetii " in Burnet's honour, he became the first person to acquire the disease in the laboratory.
17.
Other disease-causing bacterial agents isolated from lone star ticks include " Francisella tularensis ", " Rickettsia amblyommii ", and " Coxiella burnetti " . The distribution of the Lone star tick ( " Amblyomma americanum ")
18.
As it became clear that the species differed significantly from other " Rickettsia ", it was first elevated to a subgenus named after Cox, " Coxiella ", and then in 1948 to its own genus of that name, proposed by Cornelius B . Philip, another RML researcher.
19.
Exposure to birds is associated with " Chlamydia psittaci "; farm animals with " Coxiella burnetti "; aspiration of stomach contents with anaerobic organisms; and cystic fibrosis with " Pseudomonas aeruginosa " and " Staphylococcus aureus " . " Streptococcus pneumoniae " is more common in the winter, and should be suspected in persons aspirating a large amount anaerobic organisms.
20.
These include " Francisella tularensis ", " Mycobacterium tuberculosis ", " Chlamydia psittaci ", Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus, Eastern equine encephalitis virus, SARS coronavirus, " Coxiella burnetii ", Rift Valley fever virus, " Rickettsia rickettsii ", several species of " Brucella ", chikungunya, yellow fever virus, and West Nile virus.
