Resumo: The aim of this survey was to determine de frequency of anti-Leptospira spp. antibodies and the associated risk factors in stray and domiciled cats in the county of Patos, semiarid region of the Paraíba state. Blood samples from 129 cats (61 domiciled and 68 stray) were collected during the period of July to August 2011. For the anti-Leptospira spp. antibody search the microscopic agglutination test (MAT) was performed using 24 serovars as antigens. Of the 129 cats examined seven (5.43%) were seropositive to serovar Pomona, with titers ranging from 200 to 3,200. Of the stray cats three (4.41%) were seropositive, and of the domiciled four (6.56%) presented anti-Leptospira spp. serovars. Relating to risk factor analysis the variables and respective categories associated with the higher seropositivity were age/> 48 months (p = 0.001), environment where the animal stays/grass (p = 0.009) and presence of rodents/yes (p = 0.020).

Foram coletadas amostras de sangue de 129 gatos (61 domiciliados e 68 errantes) no período de julho a agosto de 2011. Para a pesquisa de anticorpos anti-Leptospira spp. foi empregado o teste de soroaglutinação microscópica (SAM), utilizando 24 sorovares como antígenos. Dos 129 gatos examinados, sete (5,43%) foram soropositivos para o sorovar Pomona, com títulos variando de 200 a 3.200. Dos gatos errantes três (4,41%) foram soropositivos e dos domiciliados quatro (6,56%) apresentaram anticorpos anti-Leptospira spp. Com relação à análise de fatores de risco, as variáveis e respectivas categorias associadas à maior soropositividade foram idade/> 48 meses (p = 0,001), ambiente onde o animal permanece/grama (p = 0,009) e presença de ratos/sim (p = 0,020).UEL2014-12-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por paresPesquisa de campoapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/1577010.5433/1679-0359.2014v35n6p3215Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 35 No. 6 (2014); 3215-3220Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 35 n. 6 (2014); 3215-32201679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
