Identification of Leptospira serovars by RFLP of the RNA polymerase beta subunit gene (rpoB)
Leptospires are usually classified by methods based on DNA-DNA hybridization and the conventional cross-agglutination absorption test, which uses polyclonal antibodies against lipopolysaccharides. In this study, the amplification of the rpoB gene, which encodes the beta-subunit of RNA polymerase, wa...
