Methanol extracts were obtained from L. interrogans serovars icterohaemorrhagiae and canicola and L. biflexa serovar patoc. Human sera from 167 normal individuals and 40 patients with different infectious diseases tested by complement fixation tests showed negative reactions. Sera from 100 patients with a suspicion of leptospirosis were tested by complement fixation tests and microscopic agglutination reactions. Agreement of 84% was found for those two reactions. Positive microscopic agglutination tests at a dilution 1:20-1:400 with negative complement fixation tests were observed in 5% of patients and negative microscopic agglutination with complement fixation tests in the range of 1:20-1:1280 were observed in 11% of the cases. |
