Detecção e classificação molecular de Chlamydophila psittaci em amostras fecais de aves assintomáticas

Abstract: RESUMOChlamydophila psittaci é uma bactéria que causa doença respiratória ou sistêmica em aves e em seres humanos. Em vista do risco de transmissão para humanos, o objetivo deste estudo foi detectar a presença de Chlamydophila spp. em amostras de fezes ou suabes cloacais de aves assintomáticas. Foram colhidas 403 amostras fecais ou suabes cloacais, provenientes de aves domésticas, selvagens ou exóticas. As amostras foram submetidas à PCR em tempo real para C. psittaci, para amplificação de fragmento parcial do… Show more

“…There was also a report of subclinical captive-bred birds having a 4.2% prevalence of avian chlamydiosis. 32 Moreover, testing done in several bird species maintained in captivity but not exhibiting clinical disease signs of avian chlamydiosis were found to have a prevalence of 91.5%. 31 In the current study, we found a 37% prevalence in the subclinical parrots, which is similar to a previous study that reported a prevalence of 35.8% in captive subclinical parrots.…”
