To perform the virus neutralization assay, 55 µL of viral
supernatant at a concentration of 100 TCID50 and 55 µL of serum (starting at a 1 ∶ 8 dilution) were mixed and incubated for 1 hour at 37 °C.
For each pool, 55 µL of rabbit sera and 55 µL of viral
supernatant at a concentration of 100 TCID50 were mixed, incubated for 1 hour at 37 °C, and inoculated onto A549 cells in wells of a 96 - well plate as described above.

By securing a pellet (with neodymium magnets) on the sides of the tube walls rather than
at the bottom, it allows complete removal of the
supernatant without touching the pellet.

supernatants were filtered through a 0.2 - µm syringe - driven filter.
After blocking for 1 hour with 10 % normal goat serum (NGS), the slides were incubated with 200 μl primary antibody, either a polyclonal rabbit anti-Borrelia (Accurate chemicals, Westbury, NY)
at 1:200 or the anti-OspA monoclonal, CB10, with a 1:30 dilution of hybridoma

On the following day (considered day 0) the concentrated retroviral
supernatants were thawed and mixed
at a 20x OCT4, 10x SOX2, 10x KLF4, 10x cMYC ratio, supplemented with fresh MEF media up to 2 ml volume (per well) and 8 ng / ml polyprene and then exposed to the HUF1 cells
at 37 °C and 5 % CO2.
Single - cell suspension was obtained by filtering the
supernatant through a 40 - μm cell strainer, and cell suspension was then gently loaded onto a layer of Histopaque - 1077 gradient (1 × 106 — 3 × 106 cells / mL HistoPaque in a total of 3 - mL volume) and then centrifuged
at 400 × g for 30 min
at room temperature.
Afterwards, the
supernatant was removed by a short spin of the plate bottom up
at no more than 9 × g. To wash the pellet, 50 µl of 70 % ethanol was pipetted into each well and again the plate was spun bottom up
at no more than 9 × g for 5 — 10 sec.
