Characterization Of Leptospiral Isolates Obtained From Selected Cattle Farms In Malaysia

Leptospirosis is an infectious disease of animals and man in many parts of the world. It is caused by Leptospira and has been classified as an important zoonotic disease. A serological survey in four selected dairy cattle farms in Malaysia revealed 36% (114/318) of the animals examined had leptos...
