[Development of polymerase chain reaction-based test systems for detecting leptospira in polytypical leptospirosis foci].
Two highly sensitive test systems G and B, based on the polymerase chain reaction, were developed for indication of pathogenic Leptospira interrogans, including the serovariants appearing during outbreaks in polytypical foci of leptospirosis in the tropical zone of China. These test systems can be used for rapid diagnosis of leptospirosis in humans in foci with different etiological structure.
