No. of bitstreams: 1 2015 - Thamyris Sampaio Vilela.pdf: 3001387 bytes, checksum: d945149445f8ee2765222f5475c7eaa2 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-02-27 / CAPES / CNPq / FAPERJ / This study aimed to develop a real-time PCR (qPCR) assay for diagnosis of Plasmodium spp. using as target the 18S rDNA and Cyt b genes. A range of 101 blood samples were collected from Gallus gallus in poultry rustic breeds of in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The collected bloods were used to prepare blood smears and to extract the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of these samples. There with, molecular protocols were tested, such as the already published conventional PCR (cPCR) and nested PCR (nPCR), designed for Plasmodium spp. In this study two qPCR protocols were developed using primers targeting the Cyt b and 18S rDNA genes. The qPCR detection limit for both genes was 10 copies of the target DNA, which were higher than the detection limit observed in nPCR and cPCR. In qPCR, 69.30% (n = 70/101) samples were positive targeting 18Sr DNA gene and 59.40% (n = 60/101) samples were positive targeting Cyt b gene. In nPCR and cPCR, 54.45% (n = 55/101) and 52.47% (n= 53/101) samples were positive, respectively. In blood smear microscopy, 31 (30.69%) samples were positive. There was no disagreement between the results (p > 0.05) of qPCR for 18Sr DNA and Cyt b genes. Additionally, qPCR was more sensitive than the other techniques discussed, mostly related to blood smear microscopy (p < 0.05). Therefore, the two qPCR developed in the study showed more sensitivity than other techniques and enabled the detection of Plasmodium spp. in poultry even in low parasitemia. / Este estudo teve como objetivo desenvolver um ensaio de PCR em tempo real (qPCR) para o diagn?stico de Plasmodium spp. utilizando os genes 18S rDNA e cyt b. Foram coletadas 101 amostras de sangue de aves da esp?cie Gallus gallus de cria??o r?stica ou org?nica no munic?pio de Serop?dica, Rio de Janeiro. Os sangues coletados foram utilizados na prepara??o de esfrega?os de sangue e para extra??o do ?cido desoxirribonucl?ico (DNA) destas amostras. Protocolos de ensaios moleculares foram testados, tal como o PCR convencional (cPCR), nestedPCR (nPCR) e qPCR para Plasmodium spp. Neste estudo dois protocolos de qPCR foram desenvolvidos utilizando oligoiniciadores desenhados com alvo no citocromo b e 18S rDNA. O limite de detec??o para os dois genes qPCR foi de 10 c?pias do alvo de DNA, que foram maiores do que o limite de detec??o observado em nPCR e cPCR. Em qPCR, 69,30% (n = 70/101) amostras foram positivas com alvo no gene 18SrDNA e 59,40%(n = 60/101) amostras positivas com alvo no gene cyt b. Em nPCR e cPCR, 54,45% (n = 55/101) e 52,47% (n = 53/101) amostras foram positivas, respectivamente. Em microscopia de esfrega?o de sangue, 31 (30,69%) amostras foram positivas. N?o houve discord?ncia entre os resultados (p> 0,05) de qPCR para os genes 18SrDNA e cyt b.. Al?m disso, qPCR foi mais sens?vel do que as outras t?cnicas discutidas, principalmente relacionado com a microscopia ?ptica (p <0,05). Portanto, os dois ensaios de qPCR desenvolvidos neste estudo mostraram mais sensibilidade do que outras t?cnicas e permitiu a detec??o de Plasmodium spp. em aves de cria??o r?stica mesmo com baixa parasitemia.
