Abstract excerpt
We analyzed the 5S (rrf)-23S (rrl) intergenic spacer amplicon gene of Lyme disease spirochetes (Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato) for the first time in Taiwan. The genetic identities of these Taiwan isolates (TWKM1-7) were clarified by comparing their restriction fragment length polymorphism patte...
