Leptospiral antibodies in serum from cattle, swine, horses, deer, sheep, and goats: 1973 and 1974. 1975

R Harrington

During 2 years (fiscal years 1973 and 1974), microscopic agglutination tests were performed on 12,565 serums from cattle, swine, horses, deer, sheep, and goats for the detection of leptospiral antibodies. The most frequent presumptive infecting serogroups were Hebdomadis, Pomona, Autumnalis, Ballum, Australis, and Canicola.
