Borrelia hispanica from infected guinea pigs and Treponema pallidum from testicular syphilomas of rabbits were assayed for the presence of endotoxin with the Limulus lysate test. A suspension of Borrelia, containing 1.3 X 10(8) spirochetes/ml, was nonreactive both when it was tested as intact organisms, and when tested after disruption of the spirochetes by sonication. Eight different suspensions of treponemes, ranging from 0.6 X 10(9) to 3 X 10(9) treponemes/ml, were negative at a 1:10 dilution and were no more active than control suspensions of normal rabbit testes. Therefore, it was concluded that T. pallidum, as well as the Borrelia, possessed no endotoxin.
