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 ...

Antigenic Cross-Reactivity between Borrelia burgdorferi, Borrelia recurrentis, Treponema pallidum, and Treponema phagedenis

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, 1990
The antigenic cross-reactivity between different Borrelia and Treponema species was determined by the indirect immunofluorescence antibody test and sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by immunoblotting. The protein profiles of Borrelia burgdorferi, Borrelia recurrentis, Treponema pallidum, and Treponema phagedenis ...

Functional and structural identification of a new lectin activity of Borrelia recurrentis spirochetes

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1993
1. Haemagglutinating activity (HA) was found and characterized in lysate of the spirochete Borrelia recurrentis. 2. The highest HA was observed using native rabbit red blood cells (RBC), especially oxidized rabbit RBC. 3. In a haemagglutination inhibition test the HA showed an affinity with monosaccharides D-glucosamine, D-galactosamine and N-acetyl-D ...

Activation of protein mediators of inflammation and evidence for endotoxemia in Borrelia recurrentis infection

The American Journal of Medicine, 1977
Fifteen patients with Borrelia recurrentis infection were studied to evaluate the role of certain plasma proteins and endotoxin in the pathophysiology of both the acute illness and the Jarisch-Herxheimer-like reaction. The causative spirochetes disappeared from the blood during the Jarisch-Herxheimer-like reaction, which occurred about 2 hours after ...

Borrelia recurrentis Infection: Single-Dose Antibiotic Regimens and Management of the Jarisch-Herxheimer Reaction

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1978
For evaluation of single-dose antibiotic regimens in treatment of infection due to Borrelia recurrentis, 51 patients with louse-borne relapsing fever were randomly assigned either to one of two orally administered antibiotic regimens (500 mg of tetracycline or erythromycin) or to one of two parenterally administered regimens (250 mg of tetracycline ...

Real‐Time PCR Duplex Assay for Rickettsia prowazekii and Borrelia recurrentis

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003
Abstract: Rickettsia prowazekii, the etiologic agent for epidemic typhus, and Borrelia recurrentis, the etiologic agent of relapsing fever, both utilize the same vector, the human body louse (Pediculus humanus), to transmit human disease. We have developed an assay to detect both bacterial pathogens in a single tube utilizing real‐time PCR.

Possible Prevention of Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever in Patients Infected with Borrelia recurrentis

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1984
COLLEAGUESSome areas in the northern part of the Israel desert (Negev) are known to be endemic for Borrelia recurrentis infection [1] (tick-borne relapsing fever). Four groups of subjects, aged 18-21 years, had an overnight stay in a few caves along a small valley in this area. The groups camped separately overnight in the same caves within an interval
