A Spectral Moore Bound for Bipartite Semiregular Graphs [PDF]

SIDMA 37.1 (2023) 315-331, 2021
Let $b(k,\ell,\theta)$ be the maximum number of vertices of valency $k$ in a $(k,\ell)$-semiregular bipartite graph with second largest eigenvalue $\theta$. We obtain an upper bound for $b(k,\ell,\theta)$ for $0 < \theta < \sqrt{k-1} + \sqrt{\ell-1}$.

Growth temperature ranges of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato strains [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1998
Three strains of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, representing three human pathogenic genomospecies (B31, B. burgdorferi sensu stricto; BR14, B. garinii; BR75, B. afzelii) were grown in BSK-H medium at different temperatures and the spirochaetal cells were counted by dark-field microscopy after 0, 4, 8, 16 and 48 days.
