Lesson aim
Learn the science behind lyme disease - and how to test accurately and effectively test for it - with this masterclass from Aristo Vojdani.
What you'll learn
The importance of correctly diagnosing lyme disease The pathophysiology of lyme disease The stages of lyme disease To understand that due to the molecular similarity between many viruses, the proper interpretation of results must be conducted by the testing laboratory so that the actual cause of the problem may be identified and a proper treatment be devised. A survey of currently avaliable advanced tests avaliable to diagnose Lyme disease -
The limitations of the ELISpot testing Case studies of Multi-Peptide ELISA results

Learn more about Immunoscience's advanced lyme tests
Immunscience's Labs lyme tests are the most accurate, comprehensive, reliable and quickest method to detect Lyme disease (and other tick-borne diseases such as Babesia, Ehrlichia, and Bartonella) available. They achieve this through:
- combining the gold-standard ELISA and Western Blot lyme test methods using a new technique called in vivo induced antigen technology (which identifies immunogenic pathogen antigens expressed in vivo during infection)
- not only measuring antibodies against Borrelia (its subspecies and co-infections), but also against peptides, such as OspA, OspB, OspC, OspE, LFA, VMP, DbpA
- Immunosciences Labs’ highly rigorous lab testing process
Immunoscience's Labs lyme tests combines two Lyme gold-standard tests into one - making it more accurate, quicker and more comprehensive and combine the strengths of the current two most clinically recommended Lyme tests available into one test - the ELISA and Western Blot. They are also able to produce quantitative borrelia insights, and the Western Blot qualitative borrelia insights, to create a more full diagnostic picture.
