Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Test and evaluate a new diagnostic method (SRM-MS/MS: Selected Reaction Monitoring- Mass spectrometry) for Lyme Borreliosis on human skin biopsies. Patients included are those with the early skin manifestation (erythema migrans).

This new proteomic method will be compared to the two existing method: culture of Borrelia and PCR detection of Borrelia (DNA detection of the bacteria).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Skin biopsies

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Skin biopsies of patients with Lyme disease (erythema migrans) infected with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato will be analyzed by three diagnostic techniques : molecular technique (PCR), biological technique (culture of the bacteria) and proteomics technique (SRM/ MS-MS)
