Application and validation of PFGE for serovar identification of Leptospira clinical isolates.

PLoS neglected tropical diseases - 14 Sept 2010

Galloway Renee L, Levett Paul N

Abstract excerpt

Serovar identification of clinical isolates of Leptospira is generally not performed on a routine basis, yet the identity of an infecting serovar is valuable from both epidemiologic and public health standpoints. Only a small number of reference laboratories worldwide have the capability to perform the cross agglutinin absorption test (CAAT), the reference method for serovar identification. Pulsed-field gel...
