Rotaviruses (RVs) are the leading cause of acute diarrhea in children of low age, but also in young animals of various species. Are excreted in faeces and transmitted the fecal-oral route. Studies show that it is very important for epidemiological investigations to characterize samples of RVs isolated from animals. Intestinal parasites also pose a serious public health problem, being a major factor of morbidity and mortality in children and protein-energy malnutrition arising frameworks of chronic diarrhea. This study aimed to identify and endoparasites RVs circulating in dogs, cats and chickens Community Quilombola of Abacatal, Ananindeua, Pará. For the years 2008 and 2009 were collected 202 fecal samples, from dogs (96/2002, 47.5%), cats (8/2002, 4%) and chickens (98/2002, 48.5%). All samples were subjected to electrophoresis on immunochromatography and polyacrylamide gel for the identification of RVs, but in both cases we obtained 100% negativity. For the identification of endoparasites samples were subjected to a flotation technique with sucrose solution, the parasites most frequently found in dogs were Ancylostoma sp Spirocerca sp, Toxocara sp / Toxascaris sp, Trichuris sp and coccidio, and cats were Ancylostoma sp (5/8, 62,5%), Toxocara sp / sp Toxascaris (2/8, 25%) and Trichuris sp (1/8, 12,5%). In chickens were Ascaridia sp / sp Heterakis (33/62, 53,23%), Capillaria sp (39/62, 62,9%), Coccidio (6/62, 9,68%), Dispharynx sp (15/62, 24,19%) and Trichostrongyloidea sp (11/62, 17,74%). From the results, we concluded that the site poses a risk to human parasitic infestation, with the possibility of soil contamination by faeces and the development of zoonoses. |
