Acosta,Atzel C.; Cardoso,Marcos V.O.; Oliveira Filho,Gevanio B.; Pinheiro Junior,José W.; Leite,Ana Cristina L.; Mota,Rinaldo A.ABSTRACT: Mastitis causes significant economic losses to the dairy cattle industry. The present study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial properties of 39 heterocyclic derivatives (1,3-thiazoles and 4-thiazolidinones) against clinical mastitis isolates from dairy cows. Milk samples were collected from cows with clinical mastitis and the bacterial species were identified by PCR. Antibacterial activity was assess...
Serological response to Neospora caninum infection in goats and agreement betwe...
Kim,Pomy C.P.; Melo,Renata P.B.; Almeida,Jonatas C.; Silva,José G.; Ribeiro-Andrade,Muller; Porto,Wagnner J.N.; Pinheiro Junior,José W.; Mota,Rinaldo A.ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to measure the serological response of goats infected with Neospora caninum by assessing the diagnostic performance and agreement between three techniques (indirect immunofluorescent antibody test, IFAT; Neospora agglutitation test, NAT; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA). The panel of sera were comprised of 500 samples of goats, and 60 reference serum samples. These ref...

Lúcio,Érica Chaves; Borges,Jonas de Melo; Batista Filho,Antônio F.B.; Gouveia,Gisele Veneroni; Costa,Mateus Matiuzzi da; Mota,Rinaldo AparecidoRESUMO: Objetivou-se com este estudo determinar a ocorrência e os fatores de risco associados à infecção por Campylobacter spp. em criações de ovinos no estado de Pernambuco, Brasil. Foram coletadas 421 amostras fecais de ovinos procedentes de 20 rebanhos para o isolamento de Campylobacter spp. As espécies Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus e Campylobacter jejuni foram identificadas por Reação em Cadeia da Polime...
Occurrence of Toxoplasma gondii DNA in sheep naturally infected and slaughtered...
Bezerra,Mauro J.G.; Cruz,Jefferson A.L.O.; Kung,Eugênio S.; Silva,José G.; Santos,André S.; Moraes,Érica P.B.X.; Pinheiro Junior,José W.The aim of the present study was to assess the occurrence of antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii and to detect genomic DNA of the parasite in the reproductive organs, fetuses and fetal membranes of sheep in slaughterhouses in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. The Indirect Immunofluorescence technique (IFA) was used for screening. The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was used to detect DNA of T. gondii in the animals ...
Sparrows (Passer domesticus L.) as intermediary hosts of Toxoplasma gondii in p...
Vilela,Sineide M.O.; Silva,José S.A.; Pinheiro Junior,José W.; Moraes,Érica P.B.X.; Saukas,Tomoe N.; Gondim,Luis F.P.; Mota,Rinaldo A.This paper aimed to identify Toxoplasma gondii infection in house sparrows (Passer domesticus, Linneaus 1758) coming from poultry farms in the "agreste" region of the Brazilian state of Pernambuco. 151 sparrows (Passer domesticus) captured in eight broiler, egg layer and commercial laying poultry farms, were used. Indirect hemagglutination test was used to research anti-T. gondii antibodies. Animals that presen...
