Successful in vitro cultivation of Borrelia duttonii and its comparison with Borrelia recurrentis [PDF]
Borrelia duttonii, the cause of East African tick-borne relapsing fever, has until now been refractory to growth in laboratory media. This spirochaete has only be propagated in mice or by tissue culture, restricting both yield and purity of cells available for research. The successful isolation of five clinical isolates of B.

Does RecA have a role in Borrelia recurrentis? [PDF]
Genomic sequencing of two relapsing fever spirochaetes showed truncation of recA in Borrelia recurrentis, but not in Borrelia duttonii. RecA has an important role among bacteria; we investigated whether this characteristic was representative of B. recurrentis, or an artefact following in vitro cultivation.

Borrelia recurrentis Characterization and Comparison with Relapsing-Fever, Lyme-Associated, and Other Borrelia spp. [PDF]
Borrelia recurrentis, the cause of louse-borne relapsing fever, has until recently been considered noncultivable, which has prevented characterization of this spirochete. We successfully cultivated 18 strains from patients with louse-borne relapsing fever and present the initial characterization of these isolates.

Infection with Borrelia recurrentis: Pathogenesis of Fever and Petechiae
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1979Patients infected with the spirochete Borrelia recurrentis were studied to determine the cause of fever and mechanism of petechia formation. The limulus test for endotoxin was applied to plasma. Spirochetes were concentrated from the blood by differential centrifugation and tested for endotoxin activity.
