| Abstract | Tuomi, Jaakko (University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland), and C.-H. von Bonsdorff. Electron microscopy of tick-borne fever agent in bovine and ovine phagocytizing leukocytes. J. Bacteriol. 92:1478–1492. 1966.—Two strains of tick-borne fever agent, one more virulent to cattle and the other more virulent to sheep, were studied in thin sections of leukocyte concentrates of an affected calf and sheep, respectively. The calf was partially immune from previous infections. To obtain leukocyte concentrate, erythrocytes were lysed by ammonium chloride solution. Glutaraldehyde fixation and osmium tetroxide postfixation were used. Agent particles were detected in neutrophil and eosinophil granulocytes (occasionally also in monocytes) inside cytoplasmic vacuoles. The preparation from the sheep revealed that the tick-borne fever agent has a life cycle; it appeared as large particles, intermediate forms, and small particles. In the preparation from the calf, only large particles were observed, probably as a result of partial immunity. Large particles had a cell wall, plasma membrane, cytoplasm with ribosome-like granules, and nucleoid. They were often elongated, bearing closer resemblance to rickettsiae than to psittacosis-lymphogranuloma-trachoma (PLT) agents. The arrangement of large particles in vacuoles was variable and provided an explanation for the different forms of light microscopic tick-borne fever bodies. The intermediate forms and small particles resembled those of PLT organisms. Release of particles occurred by rupture of inclusions. In the calf also extrusion of whole inclusions was observed. This phenomenon was thought to reflect increased resistance of the cells. The large particle was considered to be the usual infective form of the agent. A middle-ground position of the agent between the genus Rickettsia and the PLT group is suggested. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
