Abstract
Passive hemagglutination test was performed in. sera from 189 patients suffering from leptospirosis. Sera were distributed into groups according to stages of illness. The resulta were compared with those obtained from the reference test (microscopic agglutination test). At the sixth to tenth days of illness, the largest number of positive results in the first sample were demonstrated by hemagglutination test, statistically signifieant at 10/0 leveI. The resulta suggest that passive hemagglutination test ean be employed for serologieal follow-up of tire various stages of leptospirosis.
