OspA heterogeneity of Borrelia valaisiana confirmed by phenotypic and genotypic analyses.

BMC infectious diseases - 24 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Although European Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato isolates have been divided into five genospecies, specific tools for the serotype characterization of only three genospecies are available. Monoclonals antibodies (mAbs) H3TS, D6 and I17.3 identify B. burgdorferi sensu stricto (ss.), B. garinii and B. afzelii respectively, but no mAbs are available to identify B. valaisiana. In the same way, specific...
