摘要: Purification of the obligate intracellular bacterium Coxiella burnetii requires physical disruption infected cells. Here we describe a gentle and safe digitonin lysis procedure to release C. from The purity, yield, infectivity digitonin-prepped organisms are comparable that purified using cell by sonication.
