Goat milk production is strategic for the social and economic development of Paraíba, mainly in semiarid regions, where the production and commercialization of goat milk and dairy products ensure the livelihood of familiar farm units. Despite being the largest goat milk producer in Brazil, the technological potential is virtually inexistent in Paraiba as opposed to the global market, in w…
Leptospirosis is an emerging zoonosis of importance both to public health and animal health. And one of the key control measures is vaccination, where the hamster is the animal model determined for vaccine testing, but knowledge of the dynamics of the cellular response is currently limited even in this model. Thus, the present project has as main objective to evaluate the immune response …
Mastitis is considered the disease of greatest impact in the global dairy industry and in Brazil, production losses between 12 and 15% are estimated, which represents about three billion liters of milk / year. However, despite adoption of the current management practices to minimize the occurrence of mastitis, results are not satisfactory for the control of mastitis by Staphylococcus aure…
Leptospirosis has been gaining increasing relevance in the context of One Health, with a view to understanding the interaction of the bacteria with animals, humans and ecosystems. Therefore, obtaining and identifying the bacteria are essential for this understanding. Brazil is known for its continental dimensions, composed of six distinct biomes: Amazon, Caatinga, Cerrado, Atlantic Forest…
Staphylococcus aureus remains a significant challenge for the dairy industry worldwide due to its pathogenicity, contagiousness, persistence of infection, and the low cure rates associated with current therapies. Innovative approaches are urgently needed, especially considering S. aureus' role as a potential reservoir for epidemic human clones and its impact on food safety through the pro…
The characteristics of the Caatinga, an unique biome, exclusively brazilian and with a great diversity of animal species, offer unique epidemiological conditions that require attention in circumstances different from those of other regions of Brazil and the world. Therefore, these particularities should be analyzed in conjunction with the epidemiology of leptospirosis. Studies in the semi…

Dengue and leptospirosis are endemic diseases in Brazil, and their diagnosis is challenging especially because most of the clinical signs are common to both diseases. This difficulty occurs especially in areas where there is a high incidence of dengue, which can lead to an overestimated viral infection perception, and the consequent low suspicion of leptospirosis. This project aims to ret…
From the 180 Brazilian pet species (Order Chiroptera), 46.7% can occur in urban areas. Bats are usually studied concerning their participation in the epidemiology of rabies, but little is known about important issues such as: (i) their participation as reservoirs and disseminators of antimicrobial resistance genes; (ii) the composition of the fecal microbiota and the presence of pathogens…
Bats belong to the order Chiroptera, class Mammalia and have a wide range of biological functions that contribute to maintaining the ecosystem. These animals are considered potential reservoirs of important zoonotic diseases due to their biological characteristics, such as traveling hundreds of kilometers away to feed, mate and perform seasonal migrations; their social behavior and coexis…
The order Chiroptera is the second largest order of mammals in number of species,which contain over 1400 species distributed in more than 200 genera. Dueto these animals' high mobility through flight during feeding, mating, and seasonal migrations; their often-large colony size, long life expectancy, and ability to coexist among urban populations, bats are potential hosts of many importan…
