摘要: Japanese quail inoculated subcutaneously with Borrelia garinii responded to infection. B. was reisolated mainly from skin and randomly several organs between 7 56 days postinoculation. Skin lesions were occasionally observed in association spirochete recovery. All birds positive for antibody at 53 These results suggest that the is a model experimental infection are reservoirs Lyme disease spirochetes.
