Caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAE) is routinely diagnosed with the Agarose Gel Immunodiffusion (AGID) technique, which is considered to have low sensitivity. The objective of this study was to standardize testing i-Elisa and Western Blot for early detection of antibodies against CAEV in goats and compare the results obtained in these tests with proof of AGID. For standardization of i-Elisa and WB, different concentrations and dilutions of antigen, sera and conjugate were used. In the i-Elisa, rigid microplate with 96 wells was adopted, and the combination that showed the best result was a concentration of 0.5µg/ well of antigen and dilutions of the serum of 1:100 and conjugate of 1:1500. In the WB nitrocellulose membranes were used, and the dilutions of the serum were defined at 1:50 and conjugate at 1:15000. To evaluate the performance of the techniques, 222 goat serum samples were tested and the data were compared with the AGID. The sensitivity and specificity of Elisa-i/IDGA, WB/AGID and WB/Elisa-i were 70% and 91%, 100% and 72.6%, 84.6% and 76.5%, concomitantly. The Kappa index of these tests was 0.35, 0.2 and 0.36, respectively. The i-Elisa and WB techniques were more sensitive than the AGID and can be used as tools for early diagnosis of CAE.

Neste trabalho será abordada a modernização das técnicas em torno da produção agrícola e como o modo de produção familiar foi deixado de lado no que diz respeito às políticas públicas, que passou a favorecer as grandes produções agrícolas. É nesse contexto que apresentam-se as características desse tipo de agricultura e as técnicas utilizadas para mantê-la nos dias de hoje, com aplicação e análise do Diagnóstico Rural Participativo em pequenas propriedades rurais no bairro rural do Sobrado, município de Rio Claro, São Paulo que, historicamente, teve no cultivo do café a base para seu desenvolvimento político e econômico e se caracteriza por ter mais de oitenta por cento (80%) de suas terras destinadas às atividades agropastoris. Sendo assim, este trabalho corrobora a estudos relacionados à metodologia aplicada e ao desenvolvimento rural sustentável no município

The black-tufted-marmoset (Callithrix penicillata), abundant in the southeastern state of São Paulo, is an exotic and invasive species . The present study aimed to study the behavior and make monitoring a population black-tufted-marmoset in man-made environment. The observations were made following the method of scan sampling, which consists of continuous observations with a duration of three minutes with a fifteen-minute intervals between one record and another. The individuals are monitored at two locations on campus, where two groups were identified (with a mean of 3.50 ± 2.06 individuals) totaling 291 hours and 30 minutes of observation. Were determined tree layers used, and observed that the group of EC preferably utilizes the highest stratum, while the group of LCF uses the middle and lower strata. Types of vocalization, such as calling, interaction and alert and frequency and percentage of these were also observed. The food items consumed by the groups that are similar in the two study sites, mostly sap and leaves were diagnosed. From observations of behavioral patterns was possible to construct an ethogram of the species ' Luiz de Queiroz ' campus, comprising the behaviors of vocalization, locomotion, foraging, game, among others. The results may be useful for development of management techniques and for subsequent studies

The Sarcocystis genus includes obligatory two-host life cycle protozoan parasites. It is the most numerous of the six genera of the Sarcocystidae family. The infection caused by parasites of this genus is a zoonotic and cosmopolitan disease known as sarcosistosis or sarcosporidiosis. The sarcositosis though frequently asymptomatic in its definitive hosts can be fatal in its intermediate hosts. The usual diagnoses of sarcosistosis takes place through a histological demonstration of schizonts in blood vessels and organs, and the presence of cysts in muscle tissue by necropsy or biopsy, this second method still more common and based on morphological features of the sarcocyst. However, these methods can be inadequate to a precise identification of the infector species once that, besides the genus being of numerous species, these often present similar morphological features. Another factor that makes the diagnostic more difficult is the non specificity of some Sacocystis species to their hosts. Consequently, molecular diagnostic methods have been used in order to identify the infector species and the parasite specific biological cycles, demonstrating also new species and coevolutive aspects between parasite and host. Among the most employed molecular techniques the Polimerase Chain Reaction (PCR), the nested-PCR and the Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) stands out

The issue of solid waste disposal and urban growth are conflictive, since the areas where old uncontrolled refuse disposal were away from the city today are incorporated to the urban area population. Thus, now population is closer to the degradation of contaminants coming from waste disposal, and, in some cases, these areas become housing subdivisions. This work aims to support the diagnosis of a former landfill in the municipality of Rio Claro (SP), using geophysical methods through resistivity anomalies. In order to develop the diagnostic, it was utilized water and soil analysis of a preliminary report and techniques of vertical electrical sounding and electrical profiling. The areas influenced by the garbage presented less resistivity than the one of the natural subsoil. Through the interpretation of results, the local potentiometric map was elaborated, as well as a map of calculated resistivity. The interpretation of these products indicated a disagreement between the groundwater flow and the current topography, leading to an identification of a preferential direction of the contamination plume in the NE-SW. These observations prove the applicability of geoelectrical methods in areas of former waste disposal with little information.

Espécies do gênero Strongyloides são importantes parasitas de humanos e animais domésticos e aquelas que parasitam roedores são freqüentemente utilizadas como modelos experimentais para o estudo da estrongiloidíase. S. venezuelensis parasita ratos (Rattus norvegicus) e seu estudo tem permitido o entendimento de mecanismos imunológicos envolvidos na relação parasita–hospedeiro da estrongiloidíase humana e animal. O diagnóstico parasitológico de S. venezuelensis pode ser realizado pela detecção de ovos embrionados nas fezes, com o uso do OPG (ovos por grama de fezes), também empregado no monitoramento da infecção. Entretanto, essa técnica se mostra pouco sensível quando a carga parasitária é leve. Os métodos moleculares aumentam a sensibilidade e a especificidade das análises. A PCR tem se mostrado como uma técnica sensível e precisa na detecção de parasitas em tecidos e fezes de hospedeiros infectados. A fim de comparar a sensibilidade das técnicas de OPG e PCR em ratos Lewis infectados por S. venezuelensis, foram realizados dois protocolos no presente estudo. No Protocolo I foi comparada a sensibilidade das duas técnicas em amostras de ratos Lewis com diferentes cargas parasitárias. A PCR com o emprego par de primers descrito por Dorris et al. (2002) obteve melhores resultados que o OPG nos grupos inoculados com 40 L3, considerada como infecção leve. Entretanto, não foi verificada diferença estatística significativa entre as técnicas (P>0,05), provavelmente por terem sido utilizados poucos animais (n=10). O outro par de primers utilizado foi desenhado a partir de uma seqüência parcial do gene do rDNA de S. venezuelensis e não foi capaz de detectar a presença do DNA do helminto em nenhuma amostra desse grupo. Já nos grupos inoculados com 400 e 4000 L3, tanto a PCR com...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

P-glycoprotein is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-driven drug efflux carrier responsible for transport of xenobiotics and multiple classes of drugs, many usually use in veterinary medicine. Encoded by MDR1 gene, also referred to as ABCB1, located on chromosome 14, is expressed in many tissues with secretory or excretory functions, such as liver, kidney and intestine, where it limits drug absorption from the gut and promotes drug excretion into the bile and urine of their substrates. In 2001, a 4 base pair gene deletion mutation in the canine MDR1 gene was identified as MDR1-1▲, ABCB1-1▲, MDR1 MDR1 nt 230 (del4) and associated with an non-functional Pglycoprotein. The clinical correlation is the (hyper) sensitivity of certain dogs breeds, mostly collies, to a few classes of drugs such as anticancer drugs (doxorubicin, vincristine, vinblastine), immunosuppressants (cyclosporine), antiparasitic drugs (ivermectin, moxidectin), steroids hormones (aldosterone, cortisol, dexamethasone), antimicrobial agents (tetracycline, doxycycline, levofloxacin, ketoconazole, itraconazole), analgesics (morphine, methadone), antidiarrheals (loperamide), antiepileptic agents (phenothiazine), cardiac drugs (digoxin, diltiazem, verapamil, talinolol) and others. Dogs with homozygous MDR1 nt 230 (del4) MDR1 mutations (MDR1 - / -) have a higher predisposition to intoxication with substrates of P-gp than heterozygous (MDR1 + / -) and these are more likely than dogs homozygous nonmutant (MDR1 +/ +). After the identification of nt230 (del4) mutation, several molecular techniques have been developed for identification of mutant animals as a diagnostic method. The importance of molecular diagnosis is, after the identification of mutant animals, establish treatment protocols safe, exclude this animals from reproduction (genetic selection program) and investigating the history of adverse drugs reactions...

Mucopolissacaridoses são erros inatos do metabolismo nos quais a deficiência ou falta de uma enzima faz com que os glicosaminoglicanos não sejam degradados e se acumulem nos lisossomos. O acúmulo se dá em todos os tecidos, dessa forma, a sintomatologia é multissistêmica e de gravidade variável. Essas características, unidas à baixa frequência, fazem com que a doença seja subdiagnosticada. O estudo teve como objetivo padronizar uma técnica laboratorial para a dosagem da atividade enzimática da iduronato-2-sulfatase, enzima alterada na mucopolissacaridose de tipo II, em gota seca em papel filtro (GSPF) por método fluorimétrico, tendo como material de referência a técnica em leucócitos. Os valores obtidos dos indivíduos saudáveis variaram entre 1,830-16,860 μmol/L/h em leucócitos e entre 2,710-17,360 μmol/L/h em GSPF, contra 0,650-3,060 μmol/L/h dos afetados em GSPF, que tiveram uma atividade entre 0,020-0,000 μmol/L/h em leucócitos. O melhor valor de corte, levando em consideração sensibilidade e especificidade, foi de 3,48 μmol/L/h. Este estudo possibilitou determinar o intervalo de referência da atividade da enzima iduronato-2-sulfatase em GSPF para a população brasileira, assim como validar as técnicas em leucócitos e GSPF
