Previous issue date: 2006-02-20 / In this study vaginal material was collected for microbiological and cytological evaluation in 39 female domestic cats, divided into two groups. The first group consisted of 21 whole animals, and the second of 18 neutered cats. All animals were apparently healthy, with ages varying from six months to 12 years, and were of different breeds; they came from domestic and county breeding centers in Rio de Janeiro. After mechanical containment, and cleansing of vulvar area, the proceeding for the microbiological isolation begun, for this two sterile pedriatic swabs previously embedded in a 0,9% saline solution were necessary. The first swab was used for bacterial isolation and preserved in Nutrient Agar transportation medium. The second swab was used for the fungal isolation and transported in Peptonated Water 1%. Afterwards, the material of both collections was refrigerated and sent to analysis. After this, the collection for cytological analysis was performed using a small interdental brush. The smears were fixated in absolute alcohol and dyed by the quick dyeing method (Diff Quick ?). In both groups studied differences were observed as to the number and species of bacteria. The first group had a higher frequency of Edwardsiella tarda (19,04%), followed by Enterobacter spp and Streptococcus spp, both with 17 isolations (16,19%). In relation to the neutered animals of the second group there was a higher predominance of Enterobacter spp (16,88%) and of Escherichia coli and of aeroginous Pseudomonas in the same proportion ( 14,28%). In the fungal isolation and identification it was also possible to observe differences related to the isolated ones in relation to the groups. In the first group there were 30,5% of Candida spp followed by Aspergillus spp (18,64%) and Curvularia spp (11,86%). Whereas in the second group, with castrated animals, there was a higher frequency of Penicillium spp (25%), Cladosporium (18,75%) and Candida spp (16,66%). As to the association between the microbiological and colpocytological exams it was observed that there was an agreement between the two auxiliary methods of diagnostic of vaginal microbiota of female cats only in the bacterial isolation, but not in the fungal isolation. / No presente estudo foi realizada a coleta de material vaginal para as avalia??es microbiol?gicas e citol?gicas em 39 gatas dom?sticas, divididas em dois grupos, sendo o primeiro composto de 21 animais inteiros e outro com 18 f?meas castradas, aparentemente saud?veis, com idade variando de seis meses a 12 anos, de diferentes ra?as, provenientes de cria??es domiciliares e particulares do munic?pio do Rio de Janeiro. Ap?s a conten??o mec?nica das f?meas e limpeza da regi?o vulvar, iniciou-se o procedimento para o isolamento microbiol?gico, para tal foram necess?rios dois swabs pedi?tricos est?reis, previamente umedecidos com solu??o salina est?ril a 0,9%. O primeiro swab foi utilizado para o isolamento bacteriano, sendo acondicionado em meio de transporte Agar Nutriente. O segundo swab para o isolamento f?ngico, transportado em ?gua Peptonada a 1%. Ap?s a coleta, ambos foram mantidos sob refrigera??o e encaminhados para an?lise. Em seguida procedeu-se a coleta para an?lise citol?gica com a utiliza??o da escova interdental fina. Os esfrega?os foram fixados em ?lcool absoluto e corados pelo m?todo de colora??o r?pida (Diff Quick?). Em rela??o aos dois grupos estudados observou-se diferen?as quanto ao n?mero e as esp?cies bacterianas encontradas. O primeiro grupo teve maior freq??ncia de Edwardsiella tarda (19,04%) seguido de Enterobacter spp e Streptococcus spp, ambos com 17 isolados (16,19%). Em rela??o aos animais castrados do segundo grupo, houve maior predomin?ncia de Enterobacter spp (16,88%) e de Escherichia coli e Pseudomonas aeruginosa com a mesma propor??o (14,28%). No isolamento e identifica??o f?ngica, foi poss?vel tamb?m observar diferen?as quanto aos isolados em rela??o aos grupos. No primeiro grupo houve 30,5% de Candida spp, seguido de Aspergillus spp (18,64%) e Curvularia (11,86%). No segundo grupo de animais castrados, houve maior freq??ncia de Penicillium spp (25%), Cladosporium (18,75%) e Candida spp (16,66%). Sobre a associa??o entre os exames microbiol?gicos e colpocitol?gicos, observou-se uma concord?ncia entre os dois m?todos auxiliares de diagn?stico da microbiota vaginal de gatas somente em rela??o ao isolamento bacteriano, mas n?o em rela??o ? f?ngica.
