“…The survival rate of the present study (89.3%) is also similar to that of previous studies that reported percentages of recovery ranging from 80 to 90% [35]. The detection of only CPV-2b was unexpected, as previous studies in Brazil showed high prevalence of CPV-2c [12,25]. Considering that these studies were carried out in other Brazilian regions, it is believed that this variation might be due to geographical differences and highlight the need for regional studies to better understand CPV epidemiology in Brazil.…”

The aim of this study was to investigate Clostridium difficile and Clostridium perfringens in 82 diarrheic dogs positive for canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV). Enterotoxigenic C. perfringens type A was isolated from three (3.6%) dogs. One (1.2%) strain was also positive for NetE- and NetF-encoding genes, which are commonly associated with diarrhea in dogs. Toxigenic C. difficile was isolated from one animal (1.2%), which was also positive for A/B toxins. The present study identified C. difficile and C. perfringens infection in CPV-positive dogs. Further studies are necessary to clarify if clostridial infections may predispose or potentiate CPV-infection in dogs or vice versa.

“…This paper reports on the in vitro isolation of CPV-2c in Brazil, the first in the country's central-west region, specifically from a dog in the state of Mato Grosso. Our finding is supported by an earlier description of the occurrence of CPV-2c in this location [5]. Furthermore, in this study, the virus was detected through an immunochromatographic test of fecal samples from a symptomatic dog, confirmed by PCR, and then isolated in a CRFK cell line, as had also been previously described in other studies [9,24].…”

“…Although CVP-2c has been detected in several Brazilian regions, this is the first description of its circulation in rural/wild areas representing human/wildlife interfaces ( Costa et al, 2005 ; Streek et al, 2009 ; Castro et al, 2010 ; Fontana et al, 2013 ; Oliveira et al, 2017 ). Despite of the availability and use of several commercial vaccines, viral enteritis − including that associated with CPV infection − remains an important problem for Brazilian dogs ( Oliveira et al, 2017 ).…”

“…Sequence analysis showed that 90.2% of the samples carried the amino acid (aa) Glu at the position 426, characteristic of CPV-2c strains, and 65% of these CPV-2c strains showed the substitution. Despite of the fact that CPV-2c was first described in South America in 2007, the high prevalence of CPV-2c strains in Brazil continues nowadays ( Pérez et al, 2007 ; Streek et al, 2009 ; Calderón et al, 2015 ; Fontana et al, 2013 ; Oliveira et al, 2017 ). Out of the 67 positive samples, 10% were identified as CPV-2a (KP694304) and 7% CPV-2b (KP694306) ( Fig.…”

Despite of the role of domestic dogs as reservoirs for threatening viral diseases for wild carnivores, few studies have focused to identify circulation of viruses among dogs living in human/wildlife interfaces. To identify canine parvovirus (CPV) types circulating in dogs living in an Atlantic forest biome, faecal samples (n = 100) were collected at the same period (one week) corresponding to each of four areas, during 2014 to 2016 and corresponded to 100 different individuals. CPV was isolated in cell culture from 67 out 100 (67%) samples from healthy dogs. Cytopathic effects were characterized by total or partial cell culture lysis. Genome sequences of CPV-2a (10%), CPV-2b (7%) and CPV-2c (50%) were concomitantly detected by PCR and nucleotide sequencing. The current study addresses the importance of monitoring CPV circulation among dogs presenting potential contact with wildlife species.
