Abstract
Major and minor antigens of serovar members of the saprophytic leptospiral serogroup Doberdo were defined by factor analysis. This serogroup could be characterized by 2 main antigens which served to distinguish members of this group from strains of other serogroups which possess other, common antigens. Factor analysis of 2 new strains of leptospires, V-2 and V-7/2, ascribed to serogroup Doberdo revealed that strain V-2, serovar drahovce, is a typical representative of the group, whereas strain V-7/2, serovar zoo, is not representative.
