Leptospirosis, a bacterial zoonosis with worldwide distribution, represents major public health challenge. It is caused by the spirochete Leptospira, whose main reservoir in urban environments brown rat ( Rattus norvegicus ). Understanding transmission dynamics of this disease within population essential for controlling risk human infection. In study, an original capture method was used to analyze variations carriage and load according age two distinct populations rats, provide better...
Rodents are the primary reservoirs for pathogenic Leptospira species, which cause leptospirosis. Among key potential carriers water voles, whose population outbreaks can consequently pose a major threat to human and animal health. We studied prevalence, prominence, epidemiology of species in voles central France. First, 46 were captured, DNA was extracted from kidney, lung, liver, blood, urine tested presence using three molecular methods: PCR, O-antigen typing, variable number tandem repeat...
Abstract Background Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease. It particularly prevalent in tropical countries and has major consequences for human animal health. In Benin, the disease's epidemiology remains poorly understood, especially livestock, which data are lacking. Objectives To characterise Leptospira seroprevalence locally circulating serogroups livestock from Cotonou to estimate prevalence of renal carriage cattle. Methods We conducted cross‐sectional study February 2020 during were...
Leptospirosis is an anthropozoonosis disease of worldwide distribution caused by mobile spirochetes the genus
Leptospirosis is a worldwide bacterial zoonosis for which the risk increases in warm and wet climates. Despite suitability of local climate bacteria’s persistence, Lebanon lacks formal system prophylaxis prevention Leptospira infection both humans animals, disease’s epidemiology unknown so far. As preliminary step, we focused on cattle, public health economic concern. We conducted descriptive study cattle from governorate Mount (ML) imported cattle. A total 187 blood 135 serum samples were...
Abstract Leptospirosis is a widespread zoonosis caused by bacteria of the genus Leptospira. Although crucial to mitigate disease risk, basic epidemiological information lacking, such as identities Leptospira maintenance hosts. The raccoon ( Procyon lotor ), an alien invasive species in France, could pose public health risk if it carries pathogenic We investigated rate and type (selective vs. unselective) carriage two main populations France. Out 141 raccoons collected, seven (5%) tested...
Rodent management involves the use of anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs). This has resulted in selection numerous resistance alleles Vkorc1 gene, encoding target enzyme ARs. In Africa, although rodents are a major problem as consequence their transport and transmission zoonotic pathogens, damage to crops, ARs spread poorly documented. We attempted address both issues Chad which is one largest countries Africa. Owing its location at crossroads central northern representative many African countries.
