Table 2 PCR results of spleen and blood compared to sequencing results of the investigated foxes (pos = representing a positive PCR product on the gel, neg = delivering no band on the gel, H.canis or B. microti -like = confirmed sequence of this pathogen in the substrate, ”f” indicates false positive samples showing a gel band, but not confirmed during sequencing)
