Lipid peroxidation and oxidative modification of proteins in tick-borne encephalitis and ixodic tick-borne borreliosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In the South Ural region of Russia, the group of ITTB and TBE occupies the leading rank positions in the structure of infections that are ecologically associated with ixodic ticks. At the present stage, studies aimed at studying non-specific pathological biochemical processes that determine the degree of oxidative damage to cell membranes ...
