Abstract
The ultrastructure of Ehrlichia canis was examined in both pulmonary mononuclear cells and in monocytes cultured from an infected dog. The cytoplasmic inclusions, or morulae, of E. canis consisted of a membrane-lined vacuole-containing elementary bodies which varied in size and number. The elementary bodies were bound by two trilamellar membranes. The organism shared morphological properties of both the genus Rickettsia and genus Chlamydia.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
