ABSTRACT:
A vaccine against Lyme disease, wherein it contains one or more monoclonal antibodies which are specific for the 31 kD antigen (OspA) or the 34 kD antigen (OspB) of Borrelia burgdorferi. The present invention also provides a process for obtaining this vaccine, as well as new monoclonal antibodies and antigens.
