| coexistence of antibodies to tick-borne pathogens of babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, and lyme borreliosis in human sera. | serum specimens from persons with or without lyme borreliosis were analyzed by indirect fluorescent antibody staining methods for total immunoglobulins to babesia microti, ehrlichia chaffeensis (arkansas strain), and ehrlichia equi (mrk strain). there was serologic evidence of human exposure to multiple tick-borne agents in 15 (6.6%) of 227 serum samples obtained in connecticut and minnesota. of these, 10 serum samples were from connecticut patients who had erythema migrans and antibodies to bor ... | 1995 | 8576376 |
| antibodies to multiple tick-borne pathogens of babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, and lyme borreliosis in white-footed mice. | serum samples from peromyscus leucopus (white-footed mouse), collected in connecticut (usa) in 1983, 1985, and during 1990 to 1993, were analyzed by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) or indirect fluorescent antibody (ifa) staining methods for antibodies to borrelia burgdorferi (strain 2591), babesia microti, ehrlichia chaffeensis (arkansas strain), and ehrlichia equi (mrk strain). of the 294 serum samples tested, 160 (54%) contained immunoglobulins to one or more of these pathogens. t ... | 1997 | 9249691 |
| possible transfusion-transmitted babesia divergens-like/mo-1 in an arkansas patient. | a patient with asplenia and multiple red blood cell transfusions acquired babesiosis infection with babesia divergens-like/mo-1 and not babesia microti, the common united states species. he had no known tick exposure. this is believed to be the first transfusion-transmitted case and the fifth documented case of babesia divergens-like/mo-1. | 2017 | 28329282 |
