THE CAPYBARA (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) AS A RESERVOIR HOST FOR Trypanosoma evansi

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1976
Discovery of two ill horses and three dogs naturally infected with Trypanosoma evansi near an experimental station in the Eastern Plains of Colombia led to a search for reservoir hosts of the parasite. Infection was detected in 8/33 healthy capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris), none of the remaining 14 horses, and none of 32 Zebu cattle (Bos indicus),

ACUTE PHASE PROTEIN RESPONSE IN THE CAPYBARA (HYDROCHOERUS HYDROCHAERIS)

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2011
We evaluated the acute phase protein response in capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris). Three animal groups were used: 1) healthy animals (n=30), 2) a group in which experimental inflammation with turpentine was induced (n=6), and 3) a group affected with sarcoptic scabies (n=14) in which 10 animals were treated with ivermectin.

The intertubular compartment morphometry in capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) testis

Animal Reproduction Science, 2006
The aim of the present study was to characterize the intertubule element volume density, individual and total Leydig cells volume, Leydig cell number per testis and per gram of testis, and leydigosomatic index in adult capybaras. Eight capybaras from a commercial abattoir were utilized.

Tuberculosis Caused by Mycobacterium bovis in a Capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2016
Tuberculosis, associated with Mycobacterium bovis, was diagnosed post mortem in an adult female capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris), kept at the Pampulha Ecological Park, Belo Horizonte, Brazil, in a large metropolitan area. On post-mortem examination, there were numerous firm white nodules scattered throughout all lobes of both lungs.

VASCULAR DAMAGE CAUSED BY Cruorifilaria tuberocauda IN THE CAPYBARA (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris)

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1978
Infection with Cruorifilaria tuberocauda caused vascular damage in the kidneys, lungs and heart of the capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris). The most significant lesions observed were in the renal and pulmonary arteries. They consisted of villous endarteritis, intimal and medial hypertrophy of the vessel walls, and large rugose protuberances that ...

The Electrocardiogram of the Capibara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris, Linné)1

Zentralblatt für Veterinärmedizin Reihe A, 2010
Summary Standard and augmented limb leads taken sequentially and three orthogonal leads, I, aVF and V10 (representing the Z axis), taken simultaneously, were recorded from 15 capibaras of both sexes. Heart rates were recorded from unanesthetized and tranquilized (using Xylazine and Ketamine) capibaras. The wave forms of the QRS complex were analyzed

Seminiferous epithelium cycle and its duration in capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris)

Tissue and Cell, 1999
Although capybara is the largest rodent in the world and largely distributed in Central and South America, there is no report in the literature concerning the cycle of seminiferous epithelium in this species. In the present study, the length of spermatogenic cycle was estimated using intratesticular injections of tritiated thymidine.
