Determination of the tick-pathogen interaction during acquisition and transmission of Borrelia duttonii by Oenithodoeos moubata
Abstract:
The goal of this thesis was to investigate the interaction between Borrelia duttonii, a causative agent of TBRF in Africa, and its tick vector Ornithodoros moubata in terms of acquisition and transmission dynamics. The infectivity of frozen sera and infected unfed O. moubata ticks was evaluated. The acquisition efficiency of B. duttonii 1120K3 and Ly isolates by O. moubata was determined and compared …moreAbstract:
