Lyme bacteria Cyst formation with detail

Same as other cyst video. Slo-Mo and details at the end of the video.

Two large "double spirochetes" Bb31 in BSKII agar with penicillin solution wicked across live slide prep.
Lower right bugs. A perfect double spirochete. Double only forms one "cyst". Not sure why, maybe because they are still attached. If separated I think they would form two. Depending on which side of the lyme controversy you stand on. Dead bug or Dormant bug.
