Digital dermatitis is caused by the bacteria from the genus Treponema. Treponema carateum is a species of spirochete bacteria in the genus "Treponema". Pinta is caused by the bacterium "Treponema carateum". The CSF is tested for antibodies for specific "Treponema pallidum" antigens. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium "Treponema pallidum" subspecies "pallidum". The responsible spirochaete is readily identifiable on sight in a microscope as a treponema. In 1998, TIGR sequenced the genome of "Treponema pallidum" (which causes syphilis). It is caused by "Treponema pallidum" and is a sexually transmitted infection. Anorectal syphilis is caused by "Treponema pallidum" and is contracted through anoreceptive intercourse. All other "Treponema pallidum" subspecies probably evolved from "Treponema pallidum pertenue". The band is named after "treponema pallidum", the bacterium that causes syphilis. Examples include species of "Buchnera", "Chlamydia", "Treponema", "Mycoplasma", and many others. Within days to weeks after initial infection, "Treponema pallidum" disseminates via blood and lymphatics. A similar specific treponemal test for syphilis is the "Treponema pallidum" hemagglutination assay or TPHA. "Treponema Denticola" is a potential etiological bacterial agent for oral cancer.
