Prevalence of rickettsial antibody and cell-mediated reaction in cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis).
Serologic studies on feral, colony-held cynomolgus monkeys indicated that 61% reacted to Coxiella burnetii antigens, and 36% reacted to Rickettsia conorii antigens. The results suggest that a high percentage of cynomolgus monkeys have been exposed to these organisms.
