Isolamento de Streptococcus agalactiae em diferentes órgãos de tilápias do nilo (Oreochromis niloticus) criadas em tanques-rede

Streptococcosis is one of the major causes of mortality in tilapia's creation in Brazil, inducing great economic losses. As soon, the study objectived to determinate the frequency of isolation and identification the Streptococcus agalactiae in organs different of Oreochromis niloticus naturally infected, derived from eight fish farms in the northern region of the state of Parana, that presented clinical signs characteristics of streptococcal disease. However, blood samples and fragments (kidney, liver, spleen, heart and brain) were collected. These all samples were plated on solid medium of brain and heart infusion (BHI) added 5% ovine blood and incubated at 29 degrees C for 7 days in aerophilic conditions. Behind, the bacterial growth and from the macro and microscopic features, colonies compatibles with Streptococcus sp. gender, were selected. The species were identified by PCR reaction and confirmed by sequencing of 16S rDNA gene. The results exhibited that in tilapia of Nile infected with S. agalactiae the isolation is more common in brain, kidney and liver in descending order.

Motivos da recusa à doação de órgãos apontados familiares de pessoas com morte encefálica

Purpose: Study aiming to understand the reasons for the refusal to donate organs by relatives of potential donors living in the Mid-Western region of the São Paulo state. Method: Qualitative study performed after data collection by the Organ Procurement Organization (OPO) Division of a reference hospital in the region. Relatives were contacted to participate in a semi-structured interview, and after the subjects in the study were characterized, four guiding questions were presented; their respective answers were recorded to be transcribed later. The Analysis of Content method proposed by Bardin was used to organize the speeches. Results: From 2006 to 2008, 30 (35.3%) families contacted by OPO have refused to agree with the organ donation. From that universe, 16 family members were interviewed. Data was systematized in three major themes: The experience of being informed on a family member’s brain death, decision concerning to the organ donation and aspects that would facilitate the decision to agree with the organ donation. Conclusion: the identification of reasons for the refusal and the suggestions presented has provided subsidies to improve the organ donation for transplantation process.
