摘要
Mycobaterium leprae infection was investigated in armadillos from the State of Espirito Santo, Brazil The AIL Flow test was performed oil 37 nine-banded armadillos and positive results were found in H (29.7%). The ML Flow test may be used to identify possible sources of Mycobaterium leprae among wild armadillos.
