715 Ixodes ricinus ticks from 4 regions of Lublin macroregion (Piotrowice,
Polesie National Park, Dabrowa and Leczynsko-Wlodawskie Lakeland) were examined
for the presence of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Toxoplasma gondi, using
polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and nested-PCR methods. The clonal type of
samples tested positive for T. gondii was identified by amplification and
fragmenting with restrictions enzymes (RFLP-restriction fragment length
polymorphism). Positive results were confirmed by sequencing.
