Resumo: | The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of anti-Ehrlichia canis and anti-Babesia vogeli IgG antibodies in dogs and correlate this prevalence with risk factors to evaluate the relation of serological status to hematological findings. Blood samples of dogs attended from September 2011 to March 2012 at the veterinary hospital of the Federal University of Lavras, Brazil, were analyzed using an indirect fluorescence antibody test (IFAT). Of the total 160 dog serum samples, 23.7% (38 dogs; CI95 17.7% – 30.7%) were seropositive for E. canis, 40.0% (64 dogs; CI95 40.0% – 59.2%) for B. vogeli, and 5.6% (9 dogs) for both hemoparasites. None of the epidemiological variables showed a significant association (P>0.05) with seropositivity to E. canis and B. vogeli. Dogs seropositive for E. canis showed lower values for hematocrit (P<0.05). However, for the erythrogram, the platelet count, the leukogram and clinical signs, no significant difference (P>0.05) was observed between dogs that were seropositive and seronegative for E. canis or for B. vogeli. Serological results suggest that infection with E. canis and B. vogeli is endemic in the canine population in question, with a prevalence of the subclinical phase (asymptomatic) in dogs that are seropositive for ehrlichiosis or babesiosis.Keywords: babesiosis; canine; ehrlichiosis; IFAT; laboratory findings. |

Amostras de sangue de cães coletadas de setembro de 2011 a março de 2012, no Hospital Veterinário da Universidade Federal de Lavras, Brasil, foram analisadas usando o teste de reação de imunofluorescência indireta (RIFI). Do total de amostras de soro de 160 cães, 23,7% (38 cães; IC95 17,7% - 30,7%) foram soropositivos para E. canis, 40,0% (64 cães; IC95 40,0% - 59,2%) para B. vogeli, e 5,6% (9 cães) para os dois hemoparasitas. Nenhuma das variáveis epidemiológicas mostrou associação significativa (P> 0,05) com a soropositividade para E. canis e B. vogeli. Cães soropositivos para E. canis mostraram valores médios mais baixos para hematócrito (P<0,05). No entanto, para o eritrograma, a contagem de plaquetas, o leucograma e os sinais clínicos, nenhuma diferença significativa (P> 0,05) foi observada entre cães soropositivos e soronegativos para E. canis ou para B. vogeli. Os resultados sorológicos deste estudo sugerem que a infecção por E. canis e B. vogeli é endêmica na população canina em questão, com uma prevalência da fase subclínica (assintomática) em cães soropositivos para erliquiose ou babesiose.Palavras chave: babesiose; cão; erliquiose; IFAT; parâmetros laboratoriais.Universidade Federal de Goiás2017-02-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa CientíficaPesquisa Científicaapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/e-3609510.1590/cab18036095Brazilian Animal Science/ Ciência Animal Brasileira; Vol. 18 (2017): Continuous publicationCiência Animal Brasileira / Brazilian Animal Science; v. 18 (2017): Publicação contínua1809-68911518-2797reponame:Ciência animal brasileira (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGenghttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/e-36095/22393https://revistas.ufg.br/vet/article/view/e-36095/22394Fonseca, Juliana PierangeliBruhn, Fábio Raphael Pascoti Bruhn PascotiRibeiro, Manoel Junqueira MacielHirsch, ChristianRocha, Christiane Maria Barcelos MagalhãesGuedes, ElizangelaGuimarães, Antônio Marcosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-06-07T18:48:26Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/36095Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/vetPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/vet/oai||revistacab@gmail.com1809-68911518-2797opendoar:2024-05-21T19:56:10.838842Ciência animal brasileira (Online) - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)true |
