Measuring Borrelia burgdorferi Motility and Chemotaxis.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) - 1 Jan 2018

Zhang Kai, Li Chunhao

Abstract excerpt

Swimming plate, cell motion tracking, and capillary tube assays are very useful tools to quantitatively measure bacterial motility and chemotaxis. These methods were modified and applied to study Borrelia burgdorferi motility and chemotaxis. By using these methods, numerous motility and chemotaxis mutants have been characterized and several chemoattractants were identified. With the assistance of these tools, the...
