Evaluation of the use of selective PCR amplification of LPS biosynthesis genes for molecular typing of leptospira at the serovar level.

Current microbiology - 1 Feb 2011

Bezerra da Silva Josefa, Carvalho Eneas, Hartskeerl Rudy A, Ho Paulo L

Abstract excerpt

Leptospirosis is an important epidemic zoonosis worldwide. Currently, there are more than 250 Leptospira pathogenic serovars known that can potentially infect humans. Conventional classification of leptospires with the serovar as the basic taxon, based on serological recognition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) composition does not correlate well with species determination, based on general genomic features. Here, we...
