Sanger Sequencing Revealed <em>Borrelia burgdorferi</em> with FlaB Paralogs Causing Spirochetemia in Early Localized Lyme Disease
2024-09-17
Abstract excerpt
It is generally assumed that spirochetemia does not take place at the early localized stage of Lyme disease. This misassumption is due to the lack of sensitive and specific methods for detection. This paper reports that separation of the platelet-rich plasma immediately after venous blood collection to prevent the spirochetes from invading the lymphocytes in the test tube is crucial in molecular detection of a sin...
