Increasing incidence of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis on Crete, Greece [PDF]

, 2009
To determine whether the incidence of canine leishmaniasis has increased on Crete, Greece, we fitted infection models to serodiagnostic records of 8,848 dog samples for 1990–2006.

Canine visceral leishmaniasis in the Northeast Region of Brazil

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2016
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a zoonosis that affects dogs and other mammals, including humans. Contact with dogs is a major risk factor for humans. This disease is endemic in several regions of Brazil. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of Leishmania spp.

Multicomponent Chimeric Antigen for Serodiagnosis of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT In this work, we describe the assembly of a synthetic gene coding for several antigenic determinants found in different Leishmania infantum antigens. Selected epitopes were derived from the ribosomal proteins LiP2a, LiP2b, and LiP0 and from the histone H2A. The resulting gene was overexpressed in

Topical insecticide treatments to protect dogs from sand fly vectors of leishmaniasis. [PDF]

, 2001
We compared the susceptibility of sand fly vectors to four topical insecticide treatments applied to domestic dogs, a reservoir of human leishmaniasis. Dogs were exposed to sand flies pretreatment and at 1 week, 1 month, and 2 months posttreatment.

Detection of canine visceral leishmaniasis by conjunctival swab PCR [PDF]

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2016
Conjunctival swab PCR was evaluated as a tool to diagnose visceral leishmaniasis in dogs.Conjunctival swab PCR was compared to indirect immunofluorescence antibody test and blood PCR.Indirect immunofluorescence was significantly correlated with conjunctival swab PCR (p < 0.05), but not with blood PCR (p > 0.05).

Rapid Detection of Leishmania infantum Infection in Dogs: Comparative Study Using an Immunochromatographic Dipstick Test, Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay, and PCR [PDF]

, 2002
Current zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (ZVL) control programs in Brazil include the culling of Leishmania infantum-infected reservoir dogs, a strategy that has failed to prevent a rise of canine and human ZVL cases over the past decade.
