«New experimental test detects signs of Lyme disease near time of infection: In proof - of - concept study, new method detects Lyme bacteria before standard blood test.» (sciencedaily.com)
An experimental method developed by federal and university researchers appears capable of detecting the stealthy culprit Lyme bacteria at the earliest time of infection, when currently available tests are often still negative. (sciencedaily.com)
The study also gives a clearer picture of how much time elapses between a known time of infection, the start of viral shedding (a signal of contagiousness), the development of an immune response, and the onset and duration of influenza symptoms. (sciencedaily.com)
