Growth temperature ranges of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato strains
1 Oct 1998
Abstract excerpt
Three strains of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, representing three human pathogenic genomospecies (B31, B. burgdorferi sensu stricto; BR14, B. garinii; BR75, B. afzelii) were grown in BSK-H medium at different temperatures and the spirochaetal cells were counted by dark-field microscopy after 0, 4, 8, 16 and 48 days. Approximate optimum (minimum-maximum) temperatures for the in-vitro growth were found to be 33...
