Peptide specific monoclonal antibodies of Leptospiral LigA for acute diagnosis of leptospirosis

Abstract Leptospirosis is underdiagnosed due to low sensitivity, need of specialised equipment, and expensive reagents for serological and molecular diagnosis respectively. Considering the sensitivity, rapidity, inexpensive reagents and collection of clinical samples, the monoclonal antibody based a...
