Conidiobolomycosis is reported in the state of Piauí, semiarid region northeastern Brazil. Affected sheep had depression, weight loss, serous or mucohemorrhagic nasal discharge, and cranium-facial asymmetry from exophthalmos 1 eye, generally with increased volume eyeball, keratitis, corneal ulceration. At necropsy 60 sheep, friable masses were observed posterior cavity, often destroying ethmoturbinate bones. Frequently, lesions invaded sinuses, cribiform plate, orbit, brain. The irregular,...
Two outbreaks of contagious agalactia by Mycoplasma agalactiae occurred in Paraíba State, Northeastern Region Brazil are reported. The disease was characterized mastitis, and polyarthritis does conjunctivitis kids lambs. Fever anorexia were also observed. Morbidy from 26.1% to 100% does, 36.5 49% In one farm 14.3% the lactating goats 6.4% died or euthanized. other, 3.3% 36.5% 22.9% lambs 84 affected euthanized control disease.

Bovine papillomavirus (BPV) is a diverse group of double-stranded DNA oncogenic viruses. BPVs are classically described as epitheliotropic, however, they have been detected in body fluids, such blood and semen. The presence BPV these sites can implications for the dissemination BPV. aim this study was to verify prevalence types cattle blood. A total 57 samples were analyzed by PCR using type-specific primers 1-6 8-10, subsequent sequencing. Sequencing quality determined Staden package with...
Bovine papillomavirus (BPV) is a diverse group of double-stranded DNA oncogenic viruses, which have been detected in epithelial lesions and body fluids. Most studies BPV infection rely on single method for detection; however the use any or technique may underestimate true prevalence this virus. The purpose study was to compare two PCR strategies detection skin fluids: these involve type-specific consensus primers. Seventy-two cutaneous lesions, 57 blood samples 59 semen were collected. used...
The diversity of papillomavirus (PV) found in bovine cutaneous warts from Brazilian cattle was evaluated using the PCR technique with utilization consensus primers MY09/11 and by Bovine Papillomavirus (BPV) type-specific followed sequencing. Eleven 6 herds were selected. Six positive for presence PV. BPV types 1, 2, 3, feline sarcoid-associated PV (FeSarPV) wart lesions, as well co-infections, found. To best our knowledge, this is first time that FeSarPV described co-infecting a Brazil....
The sequence variation in small ruminant lentiviruses from Brazilian herds of milking goats was sampled a representative region the pol gene and including entire tat open reading frame. Clones were amplified cDNA derived virus produced vitro using primers targetting conserved sequences gene. Iterative sequencing clones indicated that animals two Minas Gerais area infected by caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAEV)-like individual carried variant populations. Sequences an goat herd Pernambuco...
Papillomaviruses (PV) are double-stranded DNA viruses that can cause benignant and malignant tumors in amniotes.There 13 types of bovine papillomavirus (BPV-1 to -13); they have been found reproductive tissues body fluids.Normally these detected epithelial tissue.We looked for BPV the blood healthy cattle with papillomatosis, using PCR RT-PCR.BPV 1 2 were 8/12 samples asymptomatic bovines 8/9 from papillomatosis.Six 8 positive also showed expression BPV.Five 6 E2 expression, while 3/6 E5...
Foi feita uma comparação entre os antígenos (Ag), preparados a partir dos vírus Maedi-Visna (MVV) e Artrite-encefalite Caprina (CAEV) para detecção de anticorpos contra o CAEV em 120 amostras soro caprino. A sensibilidade especificidade relativa da imunodifusão ágar gel (IDAG) usando-se Ag MVV relação ao CAEV, foi 77,3% 100%, respectivamente (X2, p<0,01). Assim, diagnóstico infecção pelo recomenda-se apenas uso preparado do CAEV.
Foram realizados eritrogramas, leucogramas, dosagens séricas de proteínas totais, albumina, globulinas, cálcio, fósforo, magnésio, cloretos, uréia, creatinina, bilirrubina total, direta e indireta atividade sérica aspartato aminotransferase (AST), fosfatase alcalina (FA) gama-glutamiltransferase (GGT) 56 ovinos afetados por conidiobolomicose 371 sadios provenientes dos mesmos rebanhos casos da doença. Os resultados revelaram que os com apresentam anemia arregenerativa normocítica...
An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay utilizing total antigen (ELISA-Gt) and sonicated (ELISA-Gs) of Mycoplasma agalactiae protein G was standardized for the detection anti-M. antibodies in goats. Eighty-six serum samples obtained from infected uninfected flocks were used to evaluate tests. The relative sensitivity ELISA-Gt ELISA-Gs 77.27% 88.63%, respectively, while both had 95.24% specificity. A survey against contagious agalactia (CA) 317 goats Cariri microrregion, Semi-arid...
Glanders is an infectious zoonosis caused by Burkholderia (B.) mallei that mainly affects equids. The objective of this work was to provide additional knowledge on the diversity strains circulating in Brazil. Six isolates obtained during necropsies glanderous horses between 2014 and 2017 two different states (Pernambuco Alagoas) were analyzed polymerase chain reaction–high-resolution melting (PCR-HRM). While four (9902 RSC, BM_campo 1, 3 UFAL2) clustered L3B2 branch, which already includes...
The prevalence of small ruminant lentivirus (SRL) infection was evaluated in goats and sheep two counties Pernambuco State, Brasil. Seriological examinations were performed from a total 672 325 sheep, one year age older, at abattoirs. Sera analyzed by agar gel immunodiffusion using Maedi-Visna K-1514 antigens. There 42 reactive samples (95% confidence interval 3.6% to 4.9%) both slaughter houses. In Sao Lourenco da Mata county, 3.2% 4.0% goat sera responsive, whereas Paulista 5.1% 8.2%...
ABSTRACT The seroprevalence of Maedi-Visna in sheep from Aracatuba region – SP, was determined and correlated to age, gender, breed, or production systems. Blood samples were collected 444 sheep, aging two 12 year-old. Both sexes different breeds sampled 20 farms this region. Physical examination performed all animals. Agar gel immunodiffusion test kit used diagnose serum samples. Twelve animals, five farms, AGID positive, yielding a 2.7%, with no correlation among systems the detection...
Previous research has indicated that neural crosstalk is asymmetric, with the dominant effector exerting a stronger influence on non-dominant than vice versa. Recently, it been hypothesized this more substantial for proximal distal effectors. The current investigation was designed to determine effects of ((First Dorsal Interosseous (FDI)) and (triceps brachii (TBI)) muscle activation crosstalk. Twelve right-limb participants (mean age = 21.9) were required rhythmically coordinate 1:2 pattern...

ABSTRACT: Glanders is an infectious and often lethal zoonotic disease of equines caused by the bacterium, Burkholderia mallei. This condition characterized respiratory, lymphatic, cutaneous lesions. In this study, we monitored development clinical symptoms in animals naturally infected with B. mallei across different equine breeds also isolated disease-causing bacteria. We studied two official glanders outbreaks state Alagoas, Brazil. During outbreaks, performed immunological follow-up...
O mormo é uma enfermidade infecto-contagiosa de caráter agudo ou crônico que acomete principalmente os equídeos, causando enormes prejuízos na cadeia produtiva do cavalo. Para controlar a o Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento (MAPA) instituiu medidas sanitárias obrigatórias em todo território nacional incluem diagnóstico oficial pela fixação complemento (FC), maleinização sacrifício dos animais positivos.
