Análisis exploratorio de enfermedades Rickettsiales transmitidas por garrapatas en perros de Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, México

Abstract: Durante la última década en el norte de México se ha incrementado el interés por el estudio de las enfermedades zoonóticas como son la anaplasmosis y la ehrlichiosis canina, las cuales son transmitidas por garrapatas tanto a perros como a humanos. La investigación tuvo como objetivo evaluar la presencia de Ehrlichia spp. y A. phagocytophilum en perros y garrapatas de Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua. Utilizando la técnica de Reacción en Cadena de la Polimerasa (PCR, por sus siglas en inglés) se determinó una prevalenc… Show more

“…Likewise, Rickettsiosis is classified as an emerging disease of public health importance in Mexico, where thousands of cases and hundreds of deaths have been reported in humans (7,8) due to the difficulty of its diagnosis and fatal outcomes when there is no timely intervention in treatment (9,10). Furthermore, it is considered an occupational risk disease (11) and is important for travelers, especially in states bordering the north of Mexico (12). Rickettsial diseases are caused by intracellular bacteria belonging to the Rickettsial order like R. rickettsii, E. canis , and Anaplasma phagocytophilum (13).…”
