Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Leptospirosis on the Concentrations of Streptomycin in Liver and Kidneys of PigsLabrini V. Athanasiou, Vassilios Papatsiros, George Valiakos et al.Leptospirosis is a re-emerging infectious disease with zoonotic potential. Pigs are reservoir hosts of the pathogen and streptomycin is among the antibiotics proposed to eliminate leptospiral infection. The purpose of this study was to determine streptomycin concentrations and the possible effect of the presence of Leptospira in the liver and kidneys on drug distribution. Six pigs with leptospirosis and six … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2013 · 7,488 accessesView PDFCite
