Leptospira spp. in cats from tropical Mexico

Journal of Zoonotic Diseases, 2020
The natural exposure of domestic cats to Leptospira spp. and some associated risk factors were studied in a large city from tropical Mexico. Two hundred and sixty blood samples were collected from clinically healthy cats in Merida Yucatan, Mexico, and tested for 13 leptospira serovars by using the microscopic agglutination test (MAT). Forty-six (17.7%)

Large‐scale reproductive loss in sheep due to Border disease virus infection, New South Wales, Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Border disease viruses (BDV) and bovine viral diarrhoea viruses (BVDV) are members of the Pestivirus genus in the family Flaviviridae. While BVDV is one of the most significant endemic viral infections of cattle in Australia, BDV infection is generally considered to be uncommon in Australian sheep.

Long-term preservation of Leptospira spp.: challenges and prospects [PDF]

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018
Preservation of leptospiral cultures is tantamount to success in leptospiral diagnostics, research, and development of preventive strategies. Each Leptospira isolate has imperative value not only in disease diagnosis but also in epidemiology, virulence, pathogenesis, and drug development studies. As the number of circulating leptospires is continuously

Bayesian Estimation of True Prevalence and Associated Risk Factors for Leptospira spp. Among Slaughterhouse Workers and Slaughtered Cattle in the Bahr El Ghazal Region of South Sudan

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Leptospirosis is a major but under‐reported zoonotic disease, and epidemiological data from South Sudan remain limited. This study estimated the true prevalence of Leptospira spp. exposure and identified associated risk factors among slaughterhouse workers and slaughtered cattle in Western Bahr El Ghazal. Methods A cross‐sectional
