Dípteros muscóides como vetores mecânicos de ovos de helmintos em jardim zoológico, Brasil

Abstract: OBJETIVO: Verificar as espécies de dípteros muscóides capazes de veicular ovos e larvas de helmintos e avaliar o potencial de contaminação dos dípteros capturados. MÉTODOS: A pesquisa foi realizada em dois pontos distintos do Jardim Zoológico da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, RJ, no período de maio de 1996 a abril de 1998. As capturas dos dípteros foram realizadas semanalmente com armadilhas contendo peixe em putrefação, que permaneceram expostas durante uma hora nos dois pontos: local 1- próximo à lixeira do zooló… Show more

“…d 'Almeida & Almeida (1998) and Oliveira et al (2002a) reported the above species for Rio de Janeiro, with the latter being the most abundant at the zoo operated by Fundación Rio Zoo as well as having the second highest number of helminths eggs on its body surface and intestinal contents (Oliveira et al 2002b;Oliveira et al 2006).…”

“…Os dípteros pertencentes às famílias Calliphoridae e Muscidae são de grande interesse médico sanitá-rio devido ao fato dos adultos serem potenciais vetores mecânicos de agentes etiológicos, entre os quais vírus, bactérias, cistos de protozoários e ovos de helmintos, e algumas espécies podem causar miíases no homem e nos animais (GREENBERG, 1971, OLIVEIRA et al, 2002.…”

“…A mechanical vector usually contaminates itself when in contact with infected materials, transporting the parasites around and eventually into human food (Leser et al, 2000). The principal insects as the mechanical vectors of pathogens belonged to the orders Diptera, Blattodea and Hymenoptera (Oliveira et al, 2002;Thyssen et al, 2004). Some ant species known as 'tramp ants', belonging to the Formicidae have drawn particular attention in this regard.…”
