Abstract Bartonella is a genus of emerging zoonotic bacteria that are mainly associated with mammalian erythrocytes and endothelial cells. Bats natural reservoirs for variety important pathogens impact human animal health. Recent reports have highlighted the role bats bat flies in maintenance Bartonella. Here, we showed none 29 DNA blood samples obtained from five species São Luís Island, state Maranhão, northeastern Brazil, were positive qPCR assays targeting nuoG. On other hand, three out...
Anaplasmosis, caused by bacteria of the genus Anaplasma, is an important tick-borne disease that causes economic losses to livestock farms in many countries. Even though Anaplasma spp. have been detected goats and sheep worldwide, few studies investigate occurrence genetic identity these agents small ruminants from Brazil. Thus, this work aimed detect determine Baixo Parnaíba region, state Maranhão, northeastern For purpose, blood samples were collected 161 animals (91 goats; 70 sheep) 4...
Mycoplasma suis is a bacterium that causes hemoplasmosis in pigs. This agent capable of adhering to the surface porcine erythrocytes, inducing structural changes on these cells. In Brazil, there are few reports about disease, its causal agent, and economic impact this pathogen pig production systems farm sanitation. The present study aimed investigate occurrence M. extensive swine farms located counties Itapecuru Mirim, Santa Rita Rosario, State Maranhão, northeast Brazil. For such purpose,...
A serological, molecular and histopathological study was carried out in order to investigate occurrences of Toxoplasma gondii pigs slaughtered with without inspection service. Serum samples were collected from 60 detect anti-T. antibody by indirect fluorescent (IFAT). Tongue, masseter diaphragm fragments also for parasite DNA detection means the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. The serological results showed that 77% (44/60) positive. Regarding PCR, 66.67% (40/60) positive T....
Abstract Anaplasma marginale is an obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacterium found in ruminants’ erythrocytes and the etiological agent of bovine anaplasmosis. The bacterium’s genetic diversity has been characterized based on sequences major surface proteins (MSPs), such as MSP1α. aim present study was to investigate A. cattle state Maranhão, northeastern Brazil. To this end, 343 blood samples were harvested subjected iELISA assays using recombinant protein MSP5. Out samples, 235...
A esporotricose é uma importante micose que afeta mamíferos e possui distribuição mundial. Sua ocorrênciano Brasil está associada principalmente à transmissão zoonótica por felinos domésticos infectados, com casos distribuídos em diversas regiões do país. Considerando a importância da felina para saúde pública animal, este trabalho realizou atividades de extensão, o objetivo disseminar informações sobre felina. O foi realizado nas dependências Hospital Veterinário Universidade Estadual...
