Laboratory Cultivation and Maintenance of <i>Borrelia miyamotoi</i>

Brandee L. Stone, Catherine A. Brissette · Current Protocols in Microbiology · 2016

AbstractBorrelia miyamotoi is a relapsing fever tick‐borne pathogen found in Ixodes spp. (hard) ticks. In vitro culturing has proven difficult despite initial reports of cultures maintained in Barbour‐Stoenner‐Kelly‐II (BSK‐II) medium. The ability to culture in vitro opens many avenues for investigating the genetics and physiology of bacterial species. This unit describes methods for the maintenance and cultivation of B. miyamotoi in liquid medium. © 2016 by John Wiley &amp; Sons, Inc.
