Resumo: ABSTRACT. Meira C.D., Wenceslau A.A., Carvalho F.S., Albuquerque, G.R. & Dias R.C. Molecular diagnosis of Leptospirosis in blood of dogs naturally infected. [Diagnóstico molecular de leptospirose no sangue de cães naturalmente infectados]. Revista Brasileira de Medicina Veterinária, 33(1):7-11, 2011. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência Animal, Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz, Rodovia Ilhéus-Itabuna, km 16, Ilheús, BA 45662-900, Brasil. E-mail: wenceslau@uesc.br Leptospirosis is an acute and systemic infectious disease, which affects men and animals and is caused by pathogenic spirochetes of the genus Leptospira spp. The early diagnosis is important for the adoption of the appropriate therapy and prevention against the installation of critical symptomatologic forms. The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is being used for the diagnosis of infectious diseases showing efficiency for the diagnosis of the disease before the development of antibodies. The aim of this work was to evaluate the PCR technique with the primers G1 and G2 that amplify a fragment of 285 base pairs, specific of the region of gene secY of Leptospira spp, on 200 blood samples from domestic and stray dogs and determination of the risk factors associated from the Municipality of Ilhéus in the State of Bahia. Nine animals (4.5%) presented positive results for leptospirosis. There was no statistically significant difference between the prevalence of leptospirosis in domiciled or stray dogs (p= 1.0), sex (p= 0.455), age (p=0.644), access to the street (p= 0.113) and presence and/or contact with rodents (p= 0.362).

A Reação em Cadeia da Polimerase (PCR) está sendo usada para diagnóstico de doenças infecciosas, mostrando eficiência para o diagnóstico da doença antes do desenvolvimento de anticorpos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a técnica de PCR com os iniciadores G1 e G2, que amplificam um fragmento de 285 pares de base, específicas da região do gene secY de Leptospira spp., em 200 amostras de sangue de cães domiciliados e vadios e à determinação do fatores de risco associados do município de Ilhéus, Estado da Bahia. Desses animais, nove (4,5%) apresentaram resultados positivos para leptospirose. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa entre a prevalência de leptospirose em cães domiciliados ou errantes (p = 1,0), sexo (p = 0,455), idade (p = 0,644), o acesso à rua (p = 0,113) e a presença e/ou contato com roedores (p = 0,362).Sociedade de Medicina Veterinária do Estado do Rio de Janeiro.2011-03-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionpeer reviewedAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://rbmv.org/BJVM/article/view/777Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Medicine; Vol. 33 No. 1 (2011); 7-11Revista Brasileira de Medicina Veterinária; v. 33 n. 1 (2011); 7-112527-21790100-2430reponame:Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Medicineinstname:Sociedade de Medicina Veterinária do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (SOMVERJ)instacron:SBMVporhttps://rbmv.org/BJVM/article/view/777/636Meira, Caroline DantasWenceslau, Amauri AriasCarvalho, Fábio SantosAlbuquerque, George RêgoDias, Roberta Costainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-12-23T17:27:55Zoai:ojs.rbmv.org:article/777Revistahttps://rbmv.org/BJVMONGhttps://rbmv.org/BJVM/oaicontato.rbmv@gmail.com2527-21790100-2430opendoar:2020-12-23T17:27:55Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Medicine - Sociedade de Medicina Veterinária do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (SOMVERJ)false
