Abstract
Coxiella burnetii ''bacteria, an obligate''intracellular parasite with''a worldwide geographical distribution, are the causative''agent of Q fever in humans. In this study a total of 47 blood samples collected from aborted women in Bent Al Huda hospital in Thi- Qar province in southern Iraq. By a polymerase chain reactions (PCR) ''assay targeting''IS 1111 and'' com1 gene s of this bacterium.The C . burnetii diagnosed in 8(17.02 % ) clinical samples and the frequent''association of the pathogen with cases of spontaneous abortion. This first study on this bacterium which remains not diagnosed as causative agents of abortion and its prevalence in Iraq is non-studied.
伯纳蒂克希菌是一种专性细胞内寄生虫，在世界范围内分布，是人类Q热的致病因子。本研究共采集了伊拉克南部Thi- Qar省Bent Al Huda医院流产妇女的47份血液样本。通过聚合酶链反应(PCR)“试验靶向”IS 1111和“com1基因”s。C。8例(17.02%)临床标本检出伯纳蒂菌，常与自然流产病例相关。对这种尚未被诊断为流产病原体的细菌及其在伊拉克的流行情况进行的首次研究没有进行研究。
