... Growth and survival of R. rickettsii in mammalian and tick cell lines To determine their relative ability to support rickettsial growth, R. rickettsii were inoculated in Vero76, ECV304, DALBE3 and IDE2 cells and incubated at 34°C. Cell sonicates were prepared at various times post-infection (p.i.) a ...
