Article Synopsis
- Orientia tsutsugamushi, the cause of scrub typhus, was successfully isolated from patients' blood cells at a healthcare center in Vellore, Southern India.
- Researchers cultured and tested samples using various methods over 30 days, ultimately confirming three positive isolates through qPCR and other staining techniques.
- Genotyping revealed the isolates belonged to TA763 and Gilliam genotypes, marking the first successful isolation of this pathogen in the region, with potential for further genomic study.
