VNTR analysis demonstrates new patterns and high genetic diversity of Leptospira sp. of animal origin in Brazil.

Letters in applied microbiology - 1 Aug 2018

Jaeger L H, Loureiro A P, Lilenbaum W

Abstract excerpt

Leptospirosis is a worldwide zoonosis with a broad host range, including humans and domestic and wild animals. The taxonomic classification of Leptospira species is complex. More recently, several molecular tools have been employed in the attempt to group the different strains of leptospires. The objective of this study was the genetic characterization of Brazilian Leptospira sp. isolates obtained from wild and...
