• Serological Analysis by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay Using Recombinant Antigen LipL32 for the Diagnosis of Swine Leptospirosis 

      Hartleben, Cláudia P.; Leal, Fernanda M. A.; Monte, Leonardo G.; Hartwig, Daiane D.; Seixas, Fabiana K.; Vasconcellos, Sílvio A.; Brihuega, Bibiana Felicitas; Dellagostin, Odir A. (Springer, 2013-02)
      Leptospirosis is an important global zoonotic disease caused by pathogenic Leptospira spp. species. Swine leptospirosis has a major economic impact because pigs are sources of animal protein and by-products. The signs of ...
    • Seroprevalence for selected pathogens of zoonotic importance in wild nutria (Myocastor coypus) 

      Martino, Pablo Eduardo; Stanchi, Néstor Oscar; Silvestrini, María Pía; Brihuega, Bibiana Felicitas; Samartino, Luis Ernesto; Parrado, Eduardo Joaquín (Springer, 2014-06)
      Little information is present in the literature on diseases of the nutria (Myocastor coypus) in the wild. Serum samples obtained from 176 trapped animals were tested for antibody reactivity against 11 pathogens of significant ...
    • Use of Chelex-100 for the molecular diagnosisof five animal pathogens 

      Tomazic, Mariela Luján; Hamer, Micaela; Bustos, Carla Paola; Arregui, Matias Ezequiel; Ascencio, Mariano; Saraullo, Vanina Rosa; Watanabe, Olivia; Brihuega, Bibiana Felicitas; Rodriguez, Anabel Elisa; Grune Loffler, Sylvia (Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias, Universidad Nacional del Litoral, 2021-06)
      Molecular tools have improved conventional veterinary diagnosis. Acid nucleic extraction is a key step for downstream applications. This work aimed to compare the DNA extraction method Chelex-100 resin (M1) ...
    • Use of the Leptospira sp. ligB C-terminus coding region as a diagnostic tool of animal leptospirosis 

      Saraullo, Vanina Rosa; Grune Loffler, Sylvia; Florin-Christensen, Mónica; Watanabe, Olivia; Hamer, Micaela; Martinez, Mara Leila; Brihuega, Bibiana Felicitas (Elsevier, 2021-10)
      Leptospirosis is the most widespread zoonosis worldwide, and it can cause reproductive failures in livestock, while in humans may vary from a mild fever to multi-organ failure and death. Due to this, in this study, we ...
