Nellore cloned calf viability during the postnatal period
Santos,Guilherme Gonçalves Fabretti; Cholfe,Bruno Fornitano; Paiola,Igor Augusto Andreta; Morelli Júnior,João; Birgel Junior,Eduardo HarryABSTRACT: This study evaluated the viability of Nellore cloned calves derived from somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) and compare their viability with animals of the same breed derived from in vitro fertilization (IVF). Thus, two groups were formed. Group I (GI) consisted of 10 calves derived from SCNT and group II (GII) consisted of 10 calves derived from IVF. The differences detected between the groups were...
Detection of Trypanosoma vivax in tissues of experimentally infected goats: wha...
Machado,Rosangela Zacarias; Castilho Neto,Kayo José Garcia de Almeida; Gonçalves,Luiz Ricardo; Machado,Gisele Fabrino; Luvizotto,Maria Cecília RuiAbstract Trypanosomiasis, caused by Trypanosoma vivax, is responsible for great economic losses among livestock in Africa and South America. During the life cycle of these parasites, they may present different morphological, metabolic and physiological characteristics depending on the interactions that are encountered at each point of their life cycle. Although T. vivax is frequently reported in the circulation...
Beta therapy with 90strontium as single modality therapy for canine squamous ce...
Andrade,Alexandre Lima de; Fernandes,Marco Antônio Rodrigues; Sakamoto,Silmara Sanae; Luvizotto,Maria Cecília RuiThe purpose was to evaluate the effectiveness of beta-radiation with strontium-90 as single modality treatment of canine third eyelid squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Nine dogs diagnosed with third eyelid SCC were treated with strontium-90. Radiation therapy was administered in four fractions of 100cGy per site every four days and at a depth of 0.2cm (Strontium-90 build' up) in each fraction. Radiation with beta ...
Natural latex graft in lamellar and penetrating sclerectomies in rabbits
Talieri,Ivia Carmem; Laus,José Luiz; Coutinho-Netto,Joaquim; Luvizotto,Maria Cecília Rui; Paula,Meiby Carneiro deThe objective of study was to investigate the effects of natural latex with 0.1% of polylysine on lamellar and penetrating scleroctomies in rabbits. Two groups of twelve rabbits each (lamellar GI and penetrating GII) were studied. Scleral square incisions near the limbus were performed on the left eye of each animal. The latex biomembrane was fixed to the recipient sclera and it covered with a conjunctival flap...
Fungal pyogranulomatous encephalitis in a dog with leishmaniosis
Machado,Gisele Fabrino; Vasconcelos,Rosemeri de Oliveira; Luvizotto,Maria Cecília Rui; Cândido,Terezinha CristinaA case of pyogranulomatous micotic encephalitis in a one-year old, female, Fila Brasileiro dog is reported. Gross examination of the cerebrum revealed a softened haemorrhagic area in the right frontal cortex and on the cut surface of the left hemisphere, which affected the white matter and deep cortical areas. The diagnosis of multifocal mycotic pyogranulomatous encephalitis was obtained by the histopathologica...
Serological diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis by an enzyme immunoassay using ...
Lima,Valéria Marçal Felix de; Biazzono,Luciane; Silva,Ana Cláudia; Correa,Ana Paula Ferreira Lopes; Luvizotto,Maria Cecília RuiA rapid indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for measuring antibodies against Leishmania chagasi using total antigen from lysed promastigotes. Fifty symptomatic mixed breed dogs from a region of high incidence of visceral leishmaniasis in Brazil were examined. The results showed that in the positive animals, diagnosed by cytological examination, the ELISA using protein A assay system...
