molecular detection of paracoccidioides brasiliensis in road-killed wild animals. | paracoccidioides brasiliensis infections have been little studied in wild and/or domestic animals, which may represent an important indicator of the presence of the pathogen in nature. road-killed wild animals have been used for surveillance of vectors of zoonotic pathogens and may offer new opportunities for eco-epidemiological studies of paracoccidiodomycosis (pcm). the presence of p. brasiliensis infection was evaluated by nested-pcr in tissue samples collected from 19 road-killed animals; 3 ... | 2008 | 17885959 |
