Biddle writes ), with dramatic stops along the way at cholera, HIV, malaria, polio, rabies, smallpox, syphilis ( Treponema pallidum ), tuberculosis and yellow fever.

The bacterium, Treponema pallidum, joins 14 other microbes, including a half-dozen that cause disease, whose genetic structure has been blueprinted in science's ongoing genetics revolution.
23.
TPHA is an indirect hemagglutination assay used for the detection and titration of antibodies against the causative agent of syphilis, " Treponema pallidum " subspecies " pallidum ".
24.
Bacteria such as " Mycobacterium leprae " and " Treponema pallidum " can be grown in animals, although serological and microscopic techniques make the use of live animals unnecessary.
25.
In 1910, Paul Ehrlich developed the first antibiotic, by changing dyes that selectively stained " Treponema pallidum " the spirochaete that causes syphilis into compounds that selectively killed the pathogen.
26.
Treponema pallidum, which is a spirochate bacterium, is the main cause of syphilis, which spreads drastically throughout the body and can infect all the systems of the body if not treated appropriately.
27.
The new data will also include the nearly complete genome of Treponema pallidum, which causes syphilis, and partial sequences of the tuberculosis bacillus, the cholera bacterium and the second chromosome of the malaria parasite.
28.
In 1913, Noguchi demonstrated the presence of " Treponema pallidum " ( syphilitic spirochete ) in the brain of a progressive paralysis patient, proving that the spirochete was the cause of the disease.
29.
About half, as judged by their sequence of DNA letters, are similar to genes found in other bacteria, particularly the fellow spirochete that causes Lyme disease, and the rest are unique to Treponema pallidum.
30.
Noguchi's most famous contribution is his identification of the causative agent of syphilis ( the bacteria " Treponema pallidum " ) in the brain tissues of patients suffering from partial paralysis due to meningoencephalitis.
