Usefulness of real-time PCR assay targeting lipL32 gene for diagnosis of human leptospirosis in Uruguay
Introduction: Assays based on DNA amplification can provide information that contributes to the initial management of patients with leptospirosis. However, these have not been adopted in Uruguay. Our aim was to evaluate the performance of the lipL32 real-time PCR (qPCR) for diagnosis of leptospirosi...
