Reptile-associated Borrelia species in the goanna tick (Bothriocroton undatum) from Sydney, Australia

1 Dec 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Knowledge on the capacity of Australian ticks to carry Borrelia species is currently limited or missing. To evaluate the potential of ticks to carry bacterial pathogens and their DNA, it is imperative to have a robust workflow that maximises recovery of bacterial DNA within ticks in order to enable accurate identification. By exploiting the bilateral anatomical symmetry of ticks, we were able to...
