Detection of Leptospira species in environmental samples by amplification of 16S rRNA and rpoβ genes
This study attempted to identify and determine distribution of Leptospira spp. in environmental samples using 16S rRNA and rpoβ genes amplification. The samples were collected from high risk areas in Selangor, Malaysia. A total of 105 environmental samples consisting of soil and water were subjected...
