Description
Club 5 project
A third of tick-borne paathogens (bacteria, parasites, virus) are the causative agents of zoonosis. A better understanding of their epidemiologies, requires multiplex of pathogens in one sample (tick or pool of ticks). To this end, we propose to develop low density DNA microarrays that will be used as new epidemiiologic investigative tools. Based on chip technology called BioMarkTM dynamic arrays, we will detect 48 pathogens in 48 samples with few nanoliters of sample. Besides to save money and time, these arrays will permit to perform large scala studies on epidemiology of tick-borne pathogens.
