The presence of pathogenic Leptospira spp.
in the environment poses threats to human health.
The aim of this study was to detect and characterize Leptospira spp.
from environmental samples.
A total of 144 samples comprised of 72 soil and 72 water samples were collected from markets and recreational areas in a north-eastern state in Malaysia.
Samples were cultured on Ellinghausen and McCullough modified by Johnson and Harris media.
Leptospires were positive in 22.9% ( n = 33 ) of the isolates.
Based on partial sequences of 16S rRNA, a pathogenic leptospire, Leptospira alstonii ( n = 1 / 33 ), was identified in 3% of the isolates followed by intermediate leptospire (L.
wolffii, n = 1 / 33 , and L.
licerasiae, n = 7 / 33 ) and nonpathogenic leptospire, L.
meyeri ( n = 22 / 33 ) in 24.2% and 66.7%, respectively.
This study demonstrates the presence of a clinically significant pathogenic L.
alstonii in the environments which could pose health risks to the occupants and visitors.
