Molecular Typing of Tick-Borne Pathogens in Ixodids of Bosnia and Herzegovina

by

With our colleagues at the Institute of Specific Prophylaxis and Tropical Medicine in the Center for Pathophysiology, Infectiology and Immunology at the Medical University Vienna, we published a new paper. In this article, we analysed and typed tick-borne pathogens within ticks collected in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Of the analysed ticks, 22.1% were positive for at least one pathogen. Of the detected pathogens, most belonged to Rickettsia spp. and Borreliaburgdorferi sensu lato. For more information: https://doi.org/10.3390/microorganisms13051054.
