Diagnóstico de criptosporidiose em amostras fecais de bezerros por imunofluorescência direta e microscopia de contraste de fase

Abstract: O presente estudo teve como objetivo comparar as técnicas de imunofluorescência direta (IFD) e a microscopia de contraste de fase em solução de Sheather (MCF), para detecção de oocistos de Cryptosporidium spp. em amostras fecais de bezerros. A determinação dos limiares detecção da IFD e da MCF foi realizada utilizando cinco alíquotas de uma amostra fecal de bezerro, comprovadamente negativa para Cryptosporidium spp., adicionadas com diferentes quantidades de oocistos de Cryptosporidium parvum. Ao exame das 5 a… Show more

“…The diagnostic methods using microscopy that are most used and least expensive involve screening for oocysts after centrifugal flotation in Sheather's solution, followed by phase contrast microscopy (Figure 3b) or bright-field microscopy (CARDOZO et al, 2008;TEIXEIRA et al, 2011a) and any of the many staining techniques for fecal samples, including negative malachite green staining (Figure 3c) (ELLIOT et al, 1999) and acid-fast staining (HENRIKSEN & POHLENZ, 1981;ORTOLANI, 2000;CARDOZO et al, 2008). In morphometric studies, morphological and morphometric alterations in oocysts should be considered when fecal smears are subjected to staining techniques (MEIRELES & FIGUEIREDO, 1992;CARDOZO et al, 2005).…”
