Cinética do crescimento de Borrelia burgdorferi (Spirochaetaceae) em diferentes meios de cultivo

Abstract: Estudou-se a cinética de crescimento de Borrelia burgdorferi, por um período de 3 meses, utilizando os seguintes oito meios de cultivo : (1) BSK adicionado de soro de coelho, (2) BSK adicionado de soro de suíno, (3) BSK adicionado de soro de suíno + 5 fluorouracil, (4) PMR, (5) CTB, (6) Dubos, (7) Caldo Brucella e (8) BHI. Todos os meios foram preparados assepticamente e mantidos em tubos de ensaio com capacidade para 10 ml. Para cada meio, o inoculo foi padronizado para conter no início 10² espiroquetas para … Show more

“…Due to the difficult nature of culturing Spirochaetaceae in the laboratory, specific culture conditions and specialized media are essential to optimize their growth and isolation (54,55). Studies have demonstrated that Spirochaetaceae growth is only noticeable 4 weeks after culture and reaches its maximum within 8-12 weeks (56,57). This contrasts with the longest incubation time of 5 days reported in this review.…”

“…2). Oliveira et al (2004) identified aberrant forms of spirochetes while studying the growth of B. burgdorferi and demonstrated that the appearance of unusual Borrelia cysts is a common feature to the B. burgdorferi sensu lato complex. According to Brorson and Brorson (1997), adverse conditions such as the presence of antibiotics, stimulate the appearance of cysts, which may be a consequence of the microorganisms ability to survive in deficient or extreme conditions.…”

“…Many modified culture media have been evaluated, aimed at achieving the best spirochete growing conditions to produce a sufficient amount of cell mass for immunodiagnostics, the production of immunogens and for the culture of clinical specimens (Preac-Mursic et al 1991, Pollack et al 1993, Gruntar et al 2001. Oliveira et al (2004) studied the growth behavior of Borrelia burgdorferi using eight different culture media and observed that spirochete growth occurred from week four and reached a plateau between 8-12 weeks. In addi-…”
