Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Ecology
Virus
Internal medicine

Louis A. Magnarelli mainly focuses on Lyme disease, Virology, Borrelia burgdorferi, Microbiology and Antibody. His Lyme disease study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nymph, LYME, Serology and Direct fluorescent antibody. Louis A. Magnarelli focuses mostly in the field of Virology, narrowing it down to matters related to Ehrlichiosis and, in some cases, Babesiosis.

In his work, Ixodes is strongly intertwined with Ixodidae, which is a subfield of Borrelia burgdorferi. His Antibody course of study focuses on Antigen and Recombinant DNA, Protein subunit and Immunofluorescence. His Borrelia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lyme Arthritis and Dermacentor variabilis.

His most cited work include:

Cross-Reactivity in Serological Tests for Lyme Disease and Other Spirochetal Infections (240 citations)
Biology of Ticks (164 citations)
Coexistence of antibodies to tick-borne pathogens of babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, and Lyme borreliosis in human sera. (154 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Virology, Borrelia burgdorferi, Lyme disease, Antibody and Serology. His Virology study incorporates themes from Peromyscus, Ehrlichiosis, Recombinant DNA and Antigen. His study in Borrelia burgdorferi is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Odocoileus, DNA and Microbiology.

His Lyme disease study combines topics in areas such as Ixodes scapularis, relapsing fever and Erythema chronicum migrans. The concepts of his Antibody study are interwoven with issues in Staining and Western blot. In his research, Veterinary medicine is intimately related to Acari, which falls under the overarching field of Tick.

He most often published in these fields:

Virology (53.68%)
Borrelia burgdorferi (42.63%)
Lyme disease (40.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2014)?

Virology (53.68%)
Antibody (33.16%)
Antigen (19.47%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Antibody, Antigen, Serology and Borrelia burgdorferi. His Virology and Lyme disease and Ehrlichia investigations all form part of his Virology research activities. Louis A. Magnarelli has researched Lyme disease in several fields, including Babesiosis, Ixodes scapularis, relapsing fever and Ehrlichiosis.

His Antibody research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Staining and Western blot. His study looks at the intersection of Serology and topics like Immunoblot Analysis with Borrelia Burgdorferi Infection. The various areas that Louis A. Magnarelli examines in his Borrelia burgdorferi study include Peromyscus, Antibody titer and Microbiology.

Between 1997 and 2014, his most popular works were:

Biology of Ticks (164 citations)
Temporal Correlations between Tick Abundance and Prevalence of Ticks Infected with Borrelia burgdorferi and Increasing Incidence of Lyme Disease (150 citations)
Infection with Agents of Human Granulocytic Ehrlichiosis, Lyme Disease, and Babesiosis in Wild White-Footed Mice (Peromyscus leucopus) in Connecticut (92 citations)
