Estimation of repopulated spirochete forms of Borrelia spp. Borrelia burgdorferi s.s. (a) and Borrelia garinii (b) were treated with test lipid (oils at 0.15% including their active ingredients at 0.125% concentration, 13Z,16Z docosadienoic acid at concentration 0.5 mg/ml) for 72 h and transferred to fresh tubes containing BSK-H medium only. After 14 days of sub-culturing, the presence of typical motile spirochetes were determined by SYBR Green I/PI assay using direct counting and fluorescence microscope; Dap+Cef + Dox – daptomycin+cefoperazone+doxycycline (as a positive control); * p ≤ 0.001 compared to control
