    Author: Deps PD, Antunes JM, Tomimori-Yamashita J.
    Journal: Rev Soc Bras Med Trop; 2007; 40(1):86-7. PubMed ID: 17486263.
    Abstract:
    Mycobaterium leprae infection was investigated in armadillos from the State of Espírito Santo, Brazil. The ML Flow test was performed on 37 nine-banded armadillos and positive results were found in 11 (29.7%). The ML Flow test may be used to identify possible sources of Mycobaterium leprae among wild armadillos.
