Seroprevalence of leptospiral antibodies in various rodent
species captured in the study site
Leptospiral antibodies were detected in this study, whereby 201 rodents
were tested. A seroprevalence of 6.0% (12/201; 95% CI: 3.12%-10.20
%). The highest infection rate was found in Rattus rattus at 4%
(8/201) followed by Mastomys natalensis at 1.5% (3/201),
and the lowest was in Acomys spp as shown in Table 1.
