A mutagenic PCR identifies isolates of Borrelia garinii responsible for Lyme borreliosis [PDF]

, 2017
Borrelia garinii is one of the three major Borreliae responsible for Lyme borreliosis in Europe. We have characterized a protein of B. garinii (VS102) and a genomic fragment from the gene encoding this protein was cloned. The DNA sequence of the fragment

Follow-up of Bernese Mountain dogs and other dogs with serologically diagnosed Borrelia burgdorferi infection: what happens to seropositive animals? [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Data on the long-term outcome of B. burgdorferi infections in adult dogs are sparse. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether Bernese Mountain dogs with serological evidence of natural B.

Screening of Blood Donors and Recipients for Borrelia burgdorferi Antibodies: No Evidence of B. burgdorferi Infection Transmitted by Transfusion

Transfusion Medicine and Hemotherapy, 1992
In the study presented here, the prevalence of antibodies against Borrelia burgdorferi, the etiologic agent of Lyme borreliosis, was determined in a group of blood donors from the Würzburg area (Southern Germany). 13 of 472 donors (2.7%) tested were positive by immunoblotting (IB).

Citizen Science Tick Observations Serve as an Early Warning System for Tick‐Borne Diseases

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick observation data collected through citizen science is increasingly utilised to map tick‐borne infection risk areas indirectly, that is, based on the rate of tick encounters or occurrence of ticks. However, direct associations between tick observations and Lyme borreliosis (LB) cases have received little attention.

Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato inhibits CIITA transcription through pSTAT3 activation and enhanced SOCS1 and SOCS3 expression leading to limited IFN-γ production

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Interferons (IFNs) are important signaling molecules in the human immune response against micro-organisms. Throughout initial Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (B.

Infection Risk From Humans and Animals in the Anatomy Laboratory: A Scoping Review

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 346-367, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Whole‐body dissection is a cornerstone of anatomy education. During and following the COVID‐19 pandemic, exposure to infectious agents and other risks of dissection were highlighted. To identify potential risks, one must have the data outlining these risks in specific situations.
