Molecular and immunological characterisation of a Leptospira strain isolated from kidney of rats (Rattus rattus) in India
Kidneys from field rats trapped in the Izatnagal,iarea of Uttar Pradesh, India, were inoculated in EMJH medium. One of the samples yielded Leptospira organism which was designated as SR 20.Serogrouping of the isolate (SR 20) was done by microscopic agglutination test. The isolate belonged to serogro...

Further serological relationships based on reaction obtained with a panel of monoclonal antibodies showed that the isolate was closely related to dehong.
