leptospirosis and panuveitis in a dog.a case of panuveitis as a result of leptospiral infection in an 8-year-old jack russell terrier is reported. mild hyphema, aqueous flare, and partial serous retinal detachments were noted in both eyes on initial ophthalmic examination. the serum microscopic agglutination testing for leptospira serovarieties revealed titers of 1 : 12 800 for leptospira canicola and 1 : 200 for leptospira icterohemorrhagiae. with medical therapy, the panuveitis resolved and functional vision was regained. four wee ...200616634930
evaluation of a rapid slide agglutination test for the diagnosis of acute canine leptospirosis.the standard method for the diagnostic of leptospirosis is the microscopic agglutination test (mat). nevertheless, it is time-consuming and presents risk of infection for laboratory personal. several attempts to simplify and reduce the time, skill and expense required for serological testing were made. rapid slide agglutination tests (rsat) have been used nowadays as a reliable screening test for the detection of acute and recent infections by many laboratories. the purpose of that study was to ...200217061485

immunological properties of cellular and whole-culture leptospiral bacterins.two bivalent leptospiral bacterins were compared for safety in guinea pigs and for potency in hamsters. one bacterin (bacterin a) was prepared from the cellular material of leptospiral icterohaemorrhagiae and leptospira canicola cultures propagated in stuart's modified medium with 7% rabbit serum. the 2nd bacterin (bacterin b) contained whole leptospiral cultures grown in synthetic medium. neither bacterin induced adverse local or systemic reactions when injected intraperitoneally (i/p) in guine ...199717216994
serological titers to various leptospiral serovars before and after vaccinating gilts with three commercial vaccines.the antibody response to various leptospiral serovars was evaluated in six-month-old gilts vaccinated with three commercial vaccines, each containing five leptospiral serovars.all three vaccines elicited a significant postvaccinal antibody response to leptospira canicola, grippotyphosa and icterohaemorrhagiae (copenhageni). the antibody response to the other leptospiral antigens in the vaccines varied among the vaccinates. none of the vaccinated groups developed significant titers to l. hardjo. ...199017423557

the golden hamster (cricetus auratus) as a test animal for the diagnosis of leptospirosis.there is evidence that the golden hamster (cricetus auratus) is the animal of choice for the isolation of leptospirae, especially of the leptospira canicola type since young guinea pigs and mice are resistant to infection and rats are entirely refractory. both the classical strain, l. icterohaemorrhagiae and l. canicola on isolation have been found to produce a fatal infection in hamsters. the present report deals with the isolation of l. canicola in two instances by the injection intraperitonea ...194417795954
