Extractions: Related Links Lyme disease is an infection caused by the corkscrew-shaped bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi that are transmitted by the bite of deer ticks (Ixodes scapularis) and western black-legged ticks (Ixodes pacificus). The deer tick, which normally feeds on the white-footed mouse, the white-tailed deer, other mammals, and birds, is responsible for transmitting Lyme disease bacteria to humans in the northeastern and north-central United States. On the Pacific Coast, the bacteria are transmitted to humans by the western black-legged tick.

Microbiology Textbook :: The World Of Microbes Timothy Paustian from the University of WisconsinMadison has created an excellent microbiology textbook. http://www.bact.wisc.edu/microtextbook/index.html
Extractions: Science News A recent study by the CDC shows that chronic wasting disease (CWD) in deer and elk is unlikely to be transmitted to humans. CWD is a prion disease, similar to mad cow disease and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans. This conclusion was based upon epidemiological studies that showed a normal instance of CJD in areas that are endemic for CWD. Researchers also performed in vitro experiments examining the ability of the CWD prion protein to convert the normal healthy human prion protein to its diseased form. The rate of conversion was 14-fold lower than that for conversion of healthy deer prions to the diseased form. An conversion rate this low is not going to be able to cause disease in humans. This strongly suggests that transmission of CWD to humans is very unlikely.

How Germs Can Zap You and How You Can Zap Back , Warner Books, Publisher, publication date, October 1, 2001 was written by me and Edited by Dinah Dunn of Byron Preiss Visual Publications, New York and Jackie Merri Meyer of Warner Books. Available on-line and at bookstores, the book provides information on microorganisms associated with foodborne illness, colds and flu, day care, hospitals, travel, pets, home, work and those that may be used as an agent for biological warfare. All of the "Feature Articles," and the articles in "What the Heck is...?" and in "General Interest" were written by me, and therefore, any mistakes are mine, alone. I have tried to be as accurate as possible within the limits of providing the information in a "reader-friendly" format. Therefore, please forgive any latitude I have taken with the pure science discussed. With these caveats in mind: in keeping with the spirit of the "Web" and Internet, and the fact that this institution has been established for, and is devoted to, learning, all of the articles on these Pages are for anyone's use, as long as the use is for non-profit only, and this statement accompanies any copies.
