Borrelia Infection in Children

Acta Paediatrica, 1989
ABSTRACT. All children (15 years) admitted during 1986 to Sachs Children's Hospital and presenting signs of facial palsy and/or meningitis, or with a history of known tick bite followed by headache, fatigue and muscle pain, were investigated for antibodies to Borrelia in serum and cerebrospinal fluid.

ELECTRON MICROSCOPY OF BORRELIA MERIONESI AND BORRELIA RECURRENTIS

Acta Pathologica Microbiologica Scandinavica Section B Microbiology and Immunology, 1974
Borrelia merionesi and Borrelia recurrentis were studied in the electron microscope by means of negative staining and sectioning techniques. The cells of the two species had similar morphology. The cells were regularly waved and had pointed ends. Each organism had two bundles of flagella, one bundle originating from each end of the cell and each ...

Borrelia infection and vertigo

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1988
73 patients with vertigo were studied regarding serum antibodies to Borrelia spirochete antigen, using an indirect immunofluorescence method. Ten patients (14%) had serological evidence of Borrelia infection. All 10 patients had severe, incapacitating vertigo. Four of the Borrelia patients had positional vertigo and all 10 had positional nystagmus when

Chemotaxonomy of Borrelia

1994
Using FAME profiles we have demonstrated the inter-species differentiation of certain members of the spirochaete family- Leptospira, Serpulina and Borrelia species. Now we propose that intra-species differentiation of Borrelia species is possible using this phenotypic method. The delineation of B. burgdorferi into B.

Incorporation of cysteine by Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia hermsii

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1992
The growth rate of Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia hermsii in BSK II medium prepared with cysteine-free or cysteine-containing (0.185–5.92 mM) CMRL 1066 medium was studied. In media with cysteine-free CMRL 1066, growth of borreliae was detectable, although it was reduced by approximately 80%.

The Genus Borrelia

1992
The genus Borrelia is one of the four genera of the family Spirochaetaceae and is comprised of pathogenic spirochetes that are transmitted by arthropod vectors. With the exception of louse-borne relapsing fever, the borrelioses are zoonoses. In the past, due to the inability to culture the spirochetes and conduct the usual morphological and ...

Borrelia arthritis in Sweden

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1986
Antibodies to Borrelia spirochetes were determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in sera from 298 patients with postinfectious arthritis. Sera from healthy individuals, patients with acute infectious meningitis of proven etiology and patients with multiple sclerosis served as controls. Titers above the 100% percentile of controls were

Borrelia meningitis in Denmark

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1987
We studied 23 patients with borrelia meningitis, a tick-borne spirochetosis increasingly recognized in Denmark. The disease showed a seasonal incidence from June to December. Twenty one patients experienced a painful sensory radiculitis, in 17 cases followed by a predominantly cranial mononeuritis multiplex mainly affecting the facial nerve (Bannwarth ...

The Molecular Biology of Borrelia

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989
Borrelia burgdorferi, the cause of Lyme disease, has two major outer-membrane proteins, OspA and OspB, which act as surface antigens. A 49-kilobase linear plasmid contains the genes that encode for these surface proteins. Direct examination of denatured plasmid molecules has revealed single-stranded circles with a circumference of approximately 100 ...

Arthritogenicity of Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia garinii: Comparison of Infection in Mice

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2009
Arthritogenicity, as determined by joint swelling and synovial histology, was compared between or within two Borrelia genospecies that cause Lyme arthritis in humans. The spirochete burden in bladder tissue (a site of spirochete persistence) was documented by quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and immune responses were analyzed.
