Report on ticks collected in the Southeast and Mid-West regions of Brazil: analyzing the potential transmission of tick-borne pathogens to man

Foram coletados espécimes de carrapatos em 1993, 1996, 1997, e 1998, principalmente de animais selvagens e domésticos, nas Regiões Sudeste e Centro-oeste do Brasil. Nove espécies de Amblyommidae foram identificadas: Anocentor Nitens, Amblyomma cajennense, Amblyomma ovale, Amblyomma fulvum, Amblyomma striatum, Amblyomma rotundatum, Boophilus microplus, Boophilus annulatus e Rhipicephalus sanguineus. Analisou-se o potencial destas nove espécies de carrapatos como transmissores de patógenos para o homem. Um Flaviviridade Flavivirus foi isolado de espécimes de Amblyomma cajennense coletados de um capivara doente (Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris). Amblyomma cajennense é o transmissor principal da Rickettsia rickettsii (=R. rickettsi), o agente causador da febre maculosa no Brasil. Os mamíferos selvagens, principalmente capivaras e veados infestados por carrapatos vivem em próximo contato com gado, cavalos e cachorros, com quem compartilham os mesmos carrapatos, oferecendo risco de transmissão destas zoonoses silvestres aos animais domésticos e ao homem.

Short communication: Transmission of border disease virus to seronegative cows inseminated with infected semen.

The goal of this study was to investigate the transmissibility of border disease (BD) virus to seronegative cows via artificial insemination with cryopreserved semen from a bull persistently infected with BD virus. Five pestivirus naive cows were inseminated with BD virus-infected semen. Blood was collected for detection of pestivirus antibody by means of an ELISA on day 0 (day of insemination) and then every 7 days until day 56, at which time a serum neutralisation test (SNT) for differentiation of BD and BVD virus was carried out. Seroconversion was first noticed in two cows on day 14, in two cows on day 21 and in one cow on day 28. In the SNT, all cows had distinctly positive titres against BD virus. Therefore, BD virus is readily transmitted by infected semen, but none of the cows conceived, most likely because of poor semen quality.
