Article Synopsis
- Terrestrial and aquatic environments contaminated with animal urine can spread Leptospira, which causes leptospirosis in both humans and animals, but the factors influencing its growth and virulence are not fully understood.
- A new strain of Leptospira interrogans, named KeTo, was isolated from sewage in India and can oxidize various organic acids, demonstrating susceptibility to ethyl acetoacetate that inhibits its growth and biofilm formation.
- Genetic analysis revealed that KeTo shares a high similarity to pathogenic strains and has specific genes for utilizing acetoacetate, indicating its metabolic capabilities and the need for further research on its growth inhibition.
