Detection of Borrelia burgdorferi infection in Ixodes dammini ticks with the polymerase chain reaction

1 Mar 1990

Abstract excerpt

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify DNA sequences of the etiologic agent of Lyme disease, Borrelia burgdorferi, and was applied to the detection of the spirochete in its tick vector. The target for PCR amplification was the OSP-A gene of strain B31; analysis of isolates from different geographical areas indicated that this gene could be used to identify most North American isolates. These...
