To evaluate molecular tools to detect low-level parasitemia and the five species of Plasmodium that infect humans for use in control elimination programs, reference laboratories.We evaluated 145 blood samples from patients who tested positive by nested polymerase chain reaction (nPCR), asymptomatic individuals WHO Global Malaria Programme/United Kingdom National External Quality Assessment Service. Samples were assayed using genus-specific RealStar® PCR Kit 1.0 (alt-Gen; altona Diagnostics)...
Diseases caused by avian paramyxovirus (APMV) occur in commercial, captive and wild birds worldwide, demonstrating the significant economic ecological importance of these agents.Paramyxoviruses belong to Paramyxoviridae family, Paramyxovirinae subfamily Avulavirus genus.During period 2000 2011, stool small intestine samples 1647 species were sent Laboratory Electron Microscopy, Biological Institute São Paulo, Brazil, for diagnosis viral agents.The processed negative staining (rapid...
Malaria is an infectious vector-borne disease with other important routes of transmission, such as blood transfusion and organ/tissue transplantation, due to asymptomatic reservoirs Plasmodium presenting low parasitemia.Reports transfusion-transmitted malaria have shown that in immunosuppressed recipients, infections can be fatal if they are not diagnosed timely treated.All species survive on components at temperatures from 2 6 °C for some days or even weeks.This report describes two...
Malaria is the most important vector-borne disease in world and a challenge for control programs. In Brazil, 99% of cases occur Amazon region. extra-Amazonian region, non-endemic area, epidemiological surveillance focuses on imported malaria autochthonous outbreaks, including with mild symptoms low parasitemia acquired Atlantic Forest biome. this scenario, are likely to be underreported, since submicroscopic parasitemias not detected by thick blood smear, considered reference test.
