Abstract

Methods for the extraction of PCR-quality DNA from environmental soil samples by using pairs of commercially available kits were evaluated. Coxiella burnetii DNA was detected in spiked soil samples at < 1,000 genome equivalents per gram of soil and in 12 (16.4%) of 73 environmental soil samples.
