Abstract
Do Antiborrelial Antibodies Suggest Lyme Disease in Cuba?
Highlights
During 1998, serum samples from 14 persons who lived in the village Las Terrazas and had epidemiologic and clinical evidence of Lyme disease, were studied in our laboratory
We used an immunoglobulin (Ig) G and IgM–enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) kit (Enzygnost Borreliosis, Behring, Marburg, Germany), in which each strip contained wells coated with inactivated borrelial antigen, to detect specific antibodies to B. burgdorferi complex
We investigated the clinical manifestations of the patients with positive Western blotting
