lyme disease spirochete การใช้

• Up to 50 percent of the people who have antibodies indicating infection with the Lyme disease spirochete do not report any symptoms.
• Polymerase chain reaction ( PCR ) tests for Lyme disease have also been developed to detect the genetic material ( DNA ) of the Lyme disease spirochete.
• The resistance of a genospecies of Lyme disease spirochetes to the bacteriolytic activities of the alternative complement pathway of various host species may determine its reservoir host association.
• Lyme disease was discovered in Connecticut in the 1970s, and conditions in the New England region are ideal for the Lyme disease spirochete, the bacterium that lives in ticks.
• The resistance of a genospecies of Lyme disease spirochetes to the bacteriolytic activities of the alternative immune complement system of various host species may determine its reservoir host association.
• The lone star tick ( " Amblyomma americanum " ), which is found throughout the Southeastern United States as far west as Texas, is unlikely to transmit the Lyme disease spirochetes, though it may be implicated in a related syndrome called southern tick-associated rash illness, which resembles a mild form of Lyme disease.
