ABSTRACT
Rats are the natural host for Leptospira development and is a major reservoir of
leptospirosis disease. Abiotic environment such as water pH, soil pH, humidity,
air temperature, and light intensity is an important factor for the presence of
Leptospira in mice. The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of water
pH, soil pH, humidity, air temperature, and light intensity on the existence of
Leptospira in mice by using leptotek dri-dot at lateral flow re-confirmed by PCR.
Type of research is analytic with cross sectional method. Rat arrest made by the
single life trap in the house that have been choosen by using rapid survey. The
study was conducted on 34 mice that happened to be caught by using accidental
sampling. This study provides result that there is no influence of water pH, soil
pH, humidity, air temperature, and light intensity on the existence of Leptospira in
mice by leptotek dri-dot test at lateral flow. Reconfirmation is done by using PCR
test and give results that there is influence between water pH, soil pH, humidity,
and light intensity on the presence of Leptospira in mice. PCR test also proved
that the temperature does not affect the presence of Leptospira in mice. Leptotek
dri-dot at lateral flow is a weak test in detection of the presence of Leptospira in
mice, so confirmation with other tests such as PCR and MAT are also required.
