In blood banks the sought for a series of relevant
pathogens able to be transmitted by blood
transfusions is widely implemented; however the
presence of a series of pathogens in blood bank
donations remained understudied. This is the
case of some bacteria such as Leptospira spp. or
Bartonella spp. Bartonella species are bloodborne,
re-emerging organisms, capable of
causing prolonged infections in animals and
humans. Meanwhile, Leptospirosis is recognised
as an emerging public health problem
worldwide. Both infections are considered
neglected tropical diseases.
