Abstract
Borrelia turicatae (mouse virulent) and Treponema denticola , a small oral treponeme, formed right-handed helices as determined by scanning electron microscopy. Treponema pallidum (Nichols strain), Treponema paraluis-cuniculi , and two unidentified oral spirochetes displayed left-handed helices.This publication has 15 references indexed in Scilit:
