iSpot Lyme A new test.

 iSpot Lyme 

Lyme disease is difficult to diagnose. 50-70% of patients go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed due to low sensitivity of traditional antibody-based testing. iSpot Lyme™ is a new breakthrough cellular immune diagnostic tool that can detect the bacterial infection of Lyme disease with 84% sensitivity and 94% specificity.

New generation of in vitro diagnostic test for the detection of antigen-specific effector/memory T cells that respond to stimulation by Borrelia burgdorferi antigens. iSpot Lyme uses an enzyme-linked immunospot technology (ELISpot) to count B. burgdorferi-sensitized T cells. The test captures the level of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) secreted by the cells.

Study: Antibiotics don't kill Lyme disease bacteria 
WCBS-TV 
New research may be bad news for thousands who suffer from Lyme disease. As WCBS-TV's Vanessa Murdock reported, antibiotic treatment has offered Lyme sufferers some semblance of normalcy. But, recent research finds Lyme disease bacteria persist even after antibiotic
treatments.
