Abstract
Borrelia
species constitute a heterogeneous group of organisms that are maintained in nature in animal reservoirs and are transmitted via arthropod vectors.
Borrelia
species are agents of relapsing fever (RF), caused by the RF
Borrelia
group, and Lyme disease, caused by the Lyme borreliosis (LB)
Borrelia
group. A hallmark of
Borrelia
species is a segmented genome consisting of a linear chromosome and a mix of linear and circular plasmids. Although members of LB group of
Borrelia
have similar characteristics, they vary in their ability to cause disease in humans as well as in clinical manifestations. Acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans is a common late manifestation of LB in Europe. RF
Borrelia
can be detected in peripheral blood with blood films prepared from blood collected with EDTA. Variable major protein‐like sequences expressed is one of the most specific
Borrelia burgdorferi
antigens and has high significance in LB serology.
