Detection of Pathogenic <em>Leptospira</em> in Ornamental Water Fountains from Urban Sites in Cali, Colombia

2018-05-10

Abstract excerpt

Leptospirosis is a disease endemic to both rural and urban areas of tropical countries and resource-poor communities, favored by socioeconomic and climatic determinants. The survival and persistence of pathogenic leptospires in water are key to the epidemiology of the disease. Little information is available on the actual presence of Leptospira spp. in water sources of urban habitats. A study was conducted to dete...
