Is there any reference that shows that a Leishmania infected sandfly when bites to a mammalian host could not lead to successful infection. This may be because at that time the vector may be carrying the pool of parasites majorly with the avirulent ones. Because different morphological forms have different virulence.

Captured animals are more susceptible to diseases than an animal in wild. I am trying to isolate microbes from a water body inside a zoo. This water may cause more health risks to zoo animals. Please provide the details of microbes if anybody know so that I can go selectively to culture them.
Thanks in advance!

Organ culture revealed highly mucoid pink coloured colonies on Mac Conkey agar. On gram staining, Gram negative bacilli were observed. So P. multocida is ruled out and colony morphology suggests Klebsiella. I want to go for further characterization of the bacterium. But is Klebsiella that pathogenic and prevalent in rabbits?
I tried to suspend the bacterial pallet with PBS-glycerol solution but Mycobacterium bovis seems to be waxy in nature and does not mix with the solution.
What is the best method to freeze them so I can use them in my ongoing experiment?
