Rapid test for determination of chemokine CXCL13
Chemokine CXCL13 is considered as a relevant biomarker of acute Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB). Until recently, the laboratory diagnosis of LNB was based on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pleocytosis and the presence of intrathecal Borrelia specific antibodies. As shown in several studies, CXCL13 concentration is significantly elevated in CSF of LNB patients even before intrathecal production of […]
