INTRODUCTION
Serological surveys are important to assess the health status of wild animals. In this study, antibodies against Leptospira spp, causal agents of leptospirosis, were detected in free-living marsupials in the State of Pará, Brazil.
METHODS
Nineteen blood samples collected from marsupials in the municipalities of Peixe-Boi, Viseu, and Castanhal were subjected to microscopic agglutination tests.
RESULTS
In total, 36.8% (7/19) of samples were positive, and two exhibited co-agglutination. The most frequent serovars were Icterohaemorrhagiae (60%; 3/5), Panama (20%; 1/5), and Nupezo (20%; 1/5).
CONCLUSIONS
Anti-Leptospira spp antibodies currently circulate in free-living marsupials in Northeastern Pará.
引言
血清学调查对于评估野生动物的健康状况很重要。在本研究中，在巴西帕拉州的自由生活有袋动物中检测到了针对钩端螺旋体病病原体钩端螺旋体属的抗体。
方法
从佩谢-博伊、维塞乌和卡斯塔尼亚尔市的有袋动物采集的19份血样进行了显微镜凝集试验。
结果
总共36.8%（7/19）的样本呈阳性，两份呈现协同凝集。最常见的血清型是出血性黄疸型（60%；3/5）、巴拿马型（20%；1/5）和努佩佐型（20%；1/5）。
结论
抗钩端螺旋体属抗体目前在帕拉州东北部的自由生活有袋动物中传播。
