Ticks are ectoparasites spread worldwide and well known as vectors of many viruses great importance to human animal health. However, the viral diversity in ticks is still poorly understood, particularly South America. Here we characterized present Rhipicephalus microplus parasitizing cattle southern region Brazil using metagenomics. Our study revealed presence that had not been previously described region, including lihan tick virus (Phenuiviridae family) wuhan 2 (Chuviridae family), expands...
SUMMARY The order Chiroptera is considered the second largest group of mammals in world, hosting important zoonotic virus and bacteria. Bartonella hemotropic mycoplasmas are bacteria that parasite different mammals’ species, including humans, causing clinical manifestations. present work aimed investigating occurrence assessing phylogenetic positioning spp. Mycoplasma neotropical bats sampled from Brazil. Between December 2015 April 2016, 325 blood and/or tissues samples were collected 162...
Neospora caninum is a protozoan parasite that presents worldwide distribution and mainly implicated as responsible for bovine abortion. Although the presence of birds in cattle-raising properties positively correlated to higher infection rates, very little has been described about role these animals parasite's life cycle. In sense, this work aimed investigate serological histological positivity different avian species sampled its natural habitat or captivity. No was observed 294 tested serum...
SUMMARY Neospora caninum causes economical impact in cattle-raising farms since it is implicated as the major cause of bovine abortions. Although infection by parasite has been widely described mammals, role birds its life-cycle still obscure. Therefore, this work aimed to evaluate N. different chicken models. Experimental infections were conducted 7-day-old chicks, laying hens and embryonated eggs, where samples analysed for burden, IgG antibodies lesions promoted. Chickens demonstrated an...
The rock pigeon (Columba livia) may serve as a reservoir for several pathogenic agents that can be transmitted to poultry, wildlife, domesticated pets, and/or humans via excreta, secretions, or dust from feathers. In addition, ingestion of infected pigeons by wild and domestic animals also transmit these agents. health status 126 free-living in an urban area was evaluated microbiologic culture Salmonella serologic testing the presence antibodies Toxoplasma gondii Newcastle disease virus...
Parvoviruses (family Parvoviridae) are small, single-stranded DNA viruses. Many parvoviral pathogens of medical, veterinary and ecological importance have been identified. In this study, we used high-throughput sequencing (HTS) to investigate the diversity parvoviruses infecting wild domestic animals in Brazil. We identified 21 parvovirus sequences (including twelve nearly complete genomes nine partial genomes) samples derived from rodents, bats, opossums, birds cattle Pernambuco, São Paulo,...
This study aims to report the number of animal cases identified in central-south region Paraná. It also seeks correlate these findings with human diagnoses, thereby underscoring importance One Health approach implementing prophylactic measures and protocols for evaluating both positive suspected cases. In August 2023, a cat diagnosed sporotrichosis was presented at UNICENTRO Veterinary School Clinic. Accompanying its guardian, who exhibited characteristic lesions disease. An epidemiological...
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo demonstrar o perfil dos animais recolhidos pelo canil municipal de Cianorte - PR, visando observar a eficiência e cumprimento das leis criminalização do abandono, eficiências campanhas conscientização sobre posse responsável bem-estar. Foram no 698 animais, sendo que 46,80 % (327/698) eram filhotes sadios, 31,20 (218/698) adultos sadios 21,90 (153/698) doentes. Em relação ao sexo, 48,5% (180/371) adultos, doentes, fêmeas 51,5% (191/371) machos. Não foi...
A otite externa proliferativa necrotizante felina (OEPNF) é uma doença rara de etiologia desconhecida, que afeta principalmente o conduto auditivo gatos filhotes. As lesões costumam ser bilaterais, crostosas, eritematosas, necróticas e friáveis. O diagnóstico feito a partir da avaliação dos sinais clínicos juntamente com realização do exame histopatológico das lesões, enquanto tratamento realizado imunossupressores. Esse trabalho tem como objetivo descrever um caso OEPNF em gato siamês...
To evaluate the prevalence of antibodies to Chlamydophila psittaci 364 serum samples were collected from veterinarians, biologists, animal scientists, veterinary students, keepers and others employees in 20 zoos, practitioners 10 Brazilian states. Subjects ranged 15 64 years age, with 268 (74%) males 96 (26%) females. Chlamydial determined by complement fixation test (CFT) specific anti-C. IgG microimmunoflurescence (MIF) test. Complement showed 23.9% (87/364) MIF 4.7% (17/364) positive...
A medicina veterinária forense pode ser entendida como a aplicação dos conhecimentos científicos relacionados à saúde animal, com o intuito de leis colaborando as atividades judiciárias. Quando do óbito, seja natural, intencional ou por imprudência, lança-se mão da tanatologia, um ramo patologia que se preocupa morte somática e alterações cadavéricas. Identificar uma lesão foi acidental não acidental, seja, ela indica crime, exige análise integrada todos os resultados exame, considerando...
Abstract Arthropod-borne pathogens are medically important because of their ability to cause diseases in hosts. The purpose this study was detect the occurrence Ehrlichia spp., piroplasmids and Hepatozoon spp. dogs with anemia thrombocytopenia southern Brazil. EDTA-whole blood collected from 75 domestic presenting or/and Guarapuava, state Paraná, DNA samples were subjected conventional PCR assays for (dsb), (18S rRNA) rRNA), followed by sequencing phylogenetic analyses. Among dogs, one...
Bacteria in the genus Anaplasma are responsible for diseases animals and humans. Studies carried out Brazil have demonstrated that Brazilian deer able to act as hosts of agents family Anaplasmataceae possibly potential reservoirs these pathogens. Molecular phylogenetic studies been on samples two gray brocket specimens (Mazama gouazoubira) from city Guarapuava, state Paraná, Brazil, detection sp. animals. Partial nucleotide sequences genes 16S rRNA groESL were used analyses compared with...
Sylvatic yellow fever is a zoonosis associated mainly with wild animals, especially those in the genus Alouatta, that act as source of infection. Once infected, these animals pass disease on to humans by way an infected mosquito belonging genera Aedes, Haemagogus, or Sabethes. The present study first report case non-human primates (NHP) State Paraná, Brazil. After was diagnosed, several prophylactic measures were adopted prevent outbreaks humans.
Abstract Wild animals play an important role in carrying vectors that may potentially transmit pathogens. Several reports highlighted the participation of wild on Anaplasma phagocytophilum cycle, including as hosts agent. The aim this study was to report molecular detection agent phylogenetically related A. isolated from a bird Midwest state Paraná, Brazil. Fifteen blood samples were collected eleven different species Guarapuava region. One sample Penelope obscura positive nested PCR...
Newcastle disease virus (NDV) can infect over 250 bird species with variable pathogenicity; it also humans in rare cases. The present study investigated an outbreak feral pigeons São Paulo city, Brazil, 2019. Affected birds displayed neurological signs, and hemorrhages were observed different tissues. Histopathology changes infiltration of mononuclear inflammatory cells found the brain, kidney, proventriculus, heart, spleen. NDV staining was detected by immunohistochemistry. Twenty-seven out...
Transmissible venereal tumor (TVT) is a round cell neoplasm that affects dogs, mainly with access to the street, because implantation happens during coitus or by intimate social interaction another sick canid. It genital region, but there are extragenital reports. Thus, this work aims report case of TVT in eyelid and cervical region dog, male, non-castrated, adult, SRD, without previous history, positive for cynomosis, which presented ectoparasites, penile bloody secretion bulb volume...
This study was designed with the goal of adding as much information possible about role pigeons (Columba livia) and chickens (Gallus gallus) in Newcastle disease virus epidemiology. These species were submitted to direct experimental infection evaluate interspecies transmission virus-host relationships. The results obtained four models analyzed by hemagglutination inhibition reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction for detection shedding. techniques revealed that both avian species,...
