Leptospira sp. physical and chemical parameters relationship and its availability at Lata Janggut, Jeli, Kelantan

The number of Leptospirosis cases and deaths in Kelantan from 2009-2015 showed increasing trends from year to year, with Jeli District held the highest record for the number of deaths. This study play an important role to give the right information about the causes of Leptospirosis that can be trans...
