1 An infection or a disease caused by a treponema.

2 The infecting germ for both forms is Treponema pallidum.

3 The causative organism is a bacterium called Treponema pertenue, a subspecies of Treponema pallidum that causes venereal syphilis. However, yaws is a non-venereal infection.

4 Syphilis: Sexually transmitted disease caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum.

5 Objective To study the application of detecting treponema pallidum by ELISA method in blood transfusion.

6 Any group of spirochetes genus Treponema , including those that cause syphilis, pinta, and yaws.

7 Treponema pallidum particle agglutination assay(TPPA) was positive in 44(30.34%) cases, among which rapid plasma reagin assay(RPR) was positive in 22(15.17%) cases.

8 A highly contagious tropical disease that chiefly affects children, caused by the spirochete Treponema pertenue and characterized by raspberrylike sores, especially on the hands, feet, and face.

9 This paper summarizes taxonomic changes of the intestinal spirochetes and provides a brief description of undergoing changes from the genus Treponema, Serpulina to the new genus Brachyspira.

10 Objective false positive and false negative rates of serological detection of Treponema pallidum antibody.

11 Analysis on the 25 syphilitic skeletons showed the terrible bone damage inflicted by the bacterium that causes syphilis,[www.Sentencedict.com] a spirochete called Treponema pallidum.

12 Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infectious disease caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum.

13 MethodsSerum samples were determined by rapid plasma reagin test(RPR) and Treponema pallidum particle assay(TPPA).
