Distribution of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato genomic groups in Europe, a review

European Journal of Epidemiology, 1997
The survey is based on a total of 1263 records (738 isolations and 525 molecular DNA detections) of five Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. genomic groups available from 26 European countries: B. burgdorferi sensu stricto, B. afzelii, B. garinii, B. valaisiana (= VS116) and B. lusitaniae (= PoTiB2). It shows the geographic distribution, the source (ixodid ticks

Antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi in Various Population Groups in Croatia

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1992
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of antibody to Borrelia burgdorferi in Croatia in various population groups. The study comprised 263 individuals: 93 healthy subjects (travellers); 100 controls separated into 2 subgroups, 50 from high risk zone (endemic) and 50 from low risk zone (non-endemic); and 70 members of a high

Classification of Italian isolates of Borrelia burgdorferi into three genomic groups.

The new microbiologica, 1994
In this study we investigated the genotypic characteristics of some locally isolated strains of B. burgdorferi by three different methodologies: restriction endonuclease analysis (REA), Southern blot hybridization with whole DNAs from Borrelia strains and Southern blot hybridization with rRNA 16 + 23S genes derived from E. coli.

Spotted fever group rickettsiae or Borrelia burgdorferi in Ixodes cookei (Ixodidae) in Connecticut

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1991
Immatures and females of Ixodes cookei, a hard-bodied tick, were collected from woodchucks and other mammals in the northeastern United States and examined for spotted fever group rickettsiae and Borrelia burgdorferi. Of the 93 nymphs analyzed by a hemolymph test, 4 (4.3%) harbored rickettsiae. Six (15%) of 40 females were also infected.

Antibody Responses to the Three Genomic Groups of Borrelia burgdorferi in European Lyme Borreliosis

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1994
The antibody responses to the three genomic groups of Borrelia burgdorferi (B. burgdorferi sensu stricto, Borrelia garinii, and Borrelia afzelii) were determined in 97 German patients with various manifestations of Lyme borreliosis. The geometric mean antibody titers in each patient group, determined by ELISA, were similar with each antigen preparation.

Rate of infection ofIxodes ricinus ticks withBorrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto,Borrelia garinii,Borrelia afzelii and group VS116 in an endemic focus of Lyme disease in Italy

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1998
A study to evaluate the natural rate of infection of Ixodes ricinus with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato was carried out in an endemic focus of Lyme disease in the Trieste area in northern Italy. Two-hundred and twenty-seven ticks collected in ten different stations were tested individually for the presence of the spirochetes using polymerase chain ...

Distribution and Diversity ofBorrelia burgdorferiSensu Lato Group Bacteria in Sciurids of California

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2017
California has a remarkable diversity of squirrel and chipmunk species (sciurids), and five named and several unnamed genospecies in the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato group (BBSL) of bacteria as well, many of which utilize sciurids as reservoirs. We investigated the prevalence, spatial distribution, and diversity of BBSL in sciurids of California by ...
