- Abstract
The article presents the research "Bartonella Henselae in Porpoise Blood," conducted by Ricardo G. Maggi, Craig A. Harms et al. Bartonella species have been isolated from numerous domestic and wild terrestrial animals. By using real-time polymerase chain reaction, the researchers directly amplified Bartonella species DNA from blood of a harbor porpoise stranded along the northern North Carolina coast and from a pre-enrichment blood culture from a second harbor porpoise. Evidence indicates that the species are vector transmitted.
