Molecular detection and phylogenetic characterization of pathogenic Leptospira in commensal rats from Indonesian fishing ports
Background: Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the pathogenic Leptospira. The presence of commensal rats in seaport areas poses a potential risk of transmission of leptospirosis. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and molecular characteristics of pathogenic Leptospira in rats captured fro...
