Abstract

Serological tests for leptospirosis were conducted among 342 workers of several occupations in the Municipal District of Sorocaba. It was found that four of the subjects presented serum-aglutinin for L. icterohaemorrhagiae with titres of 1:3,200; 1:200;        1:200 e 1:1600. This last case showed co-aglutination for L. sentot to 1:400. Two of the subjects were workers of the sewerage systhem and two of the water supply systhem. Clinical and epidemiological data on the four patients were provided in a table.
