Feeding of Ticks on Animals for Transmission and Xenodiagnosis in Lyme Disease Research
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2013 Transmission of the etiologic agent of Lyme disease, Borrelia burgdorferi, occurs by the attachment and blood feeding of Ixodes species ticks on mammalian hosts. In nature, this zoonotic bacterial pathogen may use a variety of reservoir hosts, but the white-footed mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) is the primary reservoir for larval and nymphal ticks in ...
