Resumen:
A protein epitope which is involved in an antigenic relationship between equine ocular tissues and
Leptospira interrogans was detected in homogenates of the bacterium. The antigenic determinant was
harboured on a peptide structure which was shown to be sensitive to the action of denaturing and
reducing agents by means of Western blotting. The outer surface of the leptospires appeared to be free of
this epitope as was proved by dot-blot and electron microscopic studies.was detected in homogenates of the bacterium. The antigenic determinant was
