Leptospiral culture without 5'-fluorouracil revealed improved Leptospira isolation from febrile patients in north-eastern Malaysia

Objectives: Isolation of Leptospira by culture represents a definitive growth and confirmation of the disease, yet it is hampered with its nature of slow growth. With slight modification of culture method, the study aims to isolate and characterize Leptospira spp. from patients with acute febrile il...
