Bartonella clarridgeiae and Bartonella vinsonii subsp berkhoffii exposure in captive wild canids in Brazil
Wild canids are potential hosts for numerous species of Bartonella, yet little research has been done to quantify their infection rates in South America. We sought to investigate Bartonella seroprevalence in captive wild canids from 19 zoos in São Paulo and Mato Grosso states, Brazil. Blood samples...
