House Mice as a Real Sanitary Threat of Human and Animal Leptospirosis: Proposal for Integrated Management

Table 3

Detailed results obtained for the MAT analysis of the 76 serums sampled from the pregnant cows.

Number of analyzed serum samples	Number of serum samples with positivity to one or more serogroups
76 cattles	66 (87%)
	Detailed results of positivity
	Serogroup	Positivity ascertained to a single serotype	Cross reactions
	AUS	0	23
	GRIPP	1
	IH	0
	SJ	42
	Total	43	23
		66

Positivity is ascertained when a MAT reaction is observed solely to this serovar or when this serovar displays a titer three times higher than the other serovars when cross reactions is observed. Cross reactions in which the previous parameters are not observed (in all these reactions, MAT titer against a member of the Sejroe serogroup was common). AUS: australis, GRIPP: grippotyphosa, IH: icterohaemorrhagiae, SJ: sejroe.
