Graduate at Medicina Veterinária from Universidade Estadual de Londrina (1990), Residence on Infectious Diseases of Domestic Animals (1993-1994). Master's at Veterinary Medicine from Universidade de São Paulo (1997) and PhD at Veterinary Medicine from Universidade de São Paulo (2001). Professor of Infectious Diseases of Domestic Animals in College of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences - UNESP, Botucatu, SP, State of São Paulo, Brazil, since 1998. Has experience in Preventive Veterinary Medicine. Research studies are focused on mastitis, enterophatogens, actinomycetes (Rhodococcus equi, Nocardia, Trueperella pyogenes, Corynebacterium), and mycobacterias in livestock and companion animals.

The in vitro algaecide activity of quaternary ammonium (QA) against Prototheca isolated from bo-vine clinical mastitis was investigated, in which the clinical severity was scored, milk samples were subjected to microbiological culture, and algal species were identified by molecular typing. A total of 4275 milk clinical samples of different cows from ten large dairy farms were used. Forty-…
Rhodococcus equi is responsible for infections in multiple-host animals. In humans, the prevalence of rhodococcosis has increased worldwide and represents an emergent risk. R. equi is a soil-borne opportunistic bacterium isolated from feces of a wide variety of domestic species, except cats; thus, there is no known potential risk of its transmission from humans. Here, the mono- and cooccu…
Mastitis is a multifactorial disease caused by approximately 140 microorganisms, related to infectious or environmental origin, with varying degrees of infectivity. In addition to the economic losses of disease, both for producers and for the dairy industry by lower industrial output and lower shelf period of dairy products, the impact of these agents in the public health context, as many…

The umbilical infections in lambs show a polymicrobial nature and result in significative losses to ovine breeding, due to secondary clinical complications, e.g., organ abscesses, pneumonia, polyarthritis, encephalitis, and septicemia, resulting in early culling, high mortality rates and replacement of animals. Besides etiological complexity, Escherichia coli is the main primary agent of …
Rhodococcus equi is a well-known opportunistic bacteria found in soil and organic matter of livestock farms, and eliminated through the feces of multihost domestic animals. The pathogen is characterized by facultative intracellular infections in phagocytes, inducing pyogranulomatous lesions. Among foals, R. equi infections occur mainly secondary inhalation of aerosols, and ingestion of wa…
Species belonging genus Klebsiella have been widely found in the environment including soil, water, organic matter, and transiently, in the feces of domestic animals and humans. Routine diagnosis of the pathogen in veterinary microbiology laboratories has been based on traditional, which are not fully accurate to discriminate the great variety of Klebsiella species. In dogs, Klebsiella-in…

Wild cats are widely distributed throughout all world ecosystems, except Antarctica and Australia. Brazil shelters in its territory nine native species, since North region, Cerrado, Pantanal, and some areas from South and Southeast. These animals are divided into three genders, as follows: Leopardus, Panthera, and Puma, which can be grouped as neotropical felids due to their geographical …
The consumption of sheep products and derivatives has increased all over the world, particularly consumers who are adept at the taste of sheep meat or intolerant of bovine milk. The first months after birth are considered critical in the life of the sucking lamb, due to the high occurrence of mortality secondary to umbilical infections, commonly related to inadequate consumption of colost…
In the past decades, the closer relationships between cats and humans have significantly increased the risk of transmission of pathogens, including by bite and/or scratch. As with dogs, the main approaches taken in cases of aggression by cats involve anti-rabies and anti-tetanus prophylaxis. However, there is a great complexity of microorganisms of bacterial and fungal origin inhabiting t…
