M Cinco et al. APMIS. 1989 Apr.

Abstract

We report on the first isolation of a spirochetal organism from Ixodes ricinus ticks of the Trieste area (Northern Italy) which was identified as Borrelia burgdorferi by its reactivity with specific monoclonal antibodies directed against the OSPA and flagella proteins.
