prevalence of antibodies to borrelia burgdorferi in european bison (bison bonasus) from białowieza primeval forest.to estimate the prevalence of antibodies to borrelia burgdorferi in european bison from białowieza primeval forest, a total of 79 serum samples were collected from april 1989 until december 1994. specific antibodies to b. burgdorferi antigen were assayed using inhibition elisa. borrelia antibodies were possibly present in 16.4% of examined bisons (inhibition between 20 and 30%). however, higher level of antibodies, over 30% of inhibition, was found only in two animals: no. 382 and no. 273 (2.5% ...19968673795
detection of borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato dna in the blood of wild bison from białowieza primeval forest in eastern poland.the aim of the present study was to investigate the occurrence of borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato dna in a group of 120 wild bison (bison bonasus) from the bialowieza primeval forest in eastern poland. the pcr technique revealed the presence of 16s rna of borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in the blood of 16 out of 120 examined animals. dna amplification by means of primers sc1 and sc2 gave a product with a size of 300-bp. the sequences of the pcr products obtained showed 100% homology with each ot ...201425638986
