Bactericidal Activity of Octenidine to Various Genospecies of Borrelia burgdorferi, Sensu Lato Spirochetes in Vitro and in Vivo [PDF]

open access: yesPolish Journal of Microbiology, 2017
The aim of our studies was to invent a reliable method for detection of the bactericidal activity of disinfectants against Borrelia burgdorferi in suspension (in vitro) and in cell line cultures (in vivo). In the suspension method, 0.01% octenidine at 20&

‘Rickettsia hulinii’ belongs to the Rickettsia heilongjiangensis species [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009
A Rickettsia species has long been defined as a distinct serotype using mouse serotyping. However, owing to a lack of reproducibility and interlaboratory comparability of this method, new taxonomic guidelines, based on multigene amplification and sequencing, have been developed and validated by an international panel of rickettsiology experts [1].
