Efficacy of ciprofloxacin against Leptospira interrogans serogroup icterohaemorrhagiae [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1989 Ciprofloxacin activity against Leptospira interrogans serogroup icterohaemorrhagiae was studied in vitro and in an animal model. The MBC of ciprofloxacin was 0.6 microgram/ml. Three of three Syrian hamsters died 8 to 9 days after intraperitoneal challenge with 10(6) leptospires.

Host‐Driven Genetic Diversity of Leptospira in the Americas: A Continental Perspective
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Leptospira is a genetically diverse genus of spirochetes comprising over 68 species, including several pathogenic taxa such as L. interrogans, L. santarosai, L. noguchii, and L. weilii. These bacteria infect a wide range of vertebrates, especially mammals, with infected animals serving as renal carriers that excrete the pathogen through urine.
