Survival, Replication, and Antibody Susceptibility of Ehrlichia chaffeensis outside of Host Cells

Ehrlichia chaffeensis, an obligate intracellular, tick-transmitted bacterium, is susceptible to antibody-mediated host defense, but the mechanism by which this occurs is not understood. One possible explanation is that antibodies directly access the bacteria in the extracellular environment of the h...
