Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Gram-negative bacteria of the genus <italic>Leptospira</italic> . Rodents and other small mammals are important natural reservoirs and play a key role in the maintenance and transmission of this zoonosis to humans and animals. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and characterize the diversity of <ital...
