Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis is an important multisystemic diseasethat affects canids, being considered one of the most serious infectiousdiseases of veterinary importance, with strong social and economic impact.Its etiologic agent is the obligate intracellular bacterium Ehrlichia canis,belonging to the family Anaplasmataceae, that presents tropism by monocytesand macrophages, invading t…
Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks are currently considered of great economic and health relevance, mainly because they have wide geographic distribution, also are vector of human and animal disease and are very difficult to control. Reports in the literature of resistant populations of R. sanguineus (as well as other species) to synthetic acaricides are often, dueto the the excessive use of …

The medical and public health importance of ticks has been gaining significance. Various species, such as Rhipicephalus linnaei, Amblyomma cajennense, and R. microplus, cause infections in humans and animals, resulting in economic and health-related losses. R. linnaei ticks, known as red dog ticks, are particularly relevant as they infest domestic animals, transmiting pathogens to both pe…
The species of ticks Rhipicephalus linnaei (Audouin, 1826), known as the brown dog tick, not only causes damage by blood depletion but also serves as a vector for various pathogens. The control of these ectoparasites has been carried out through the use of synthetic chemical acaricides, and despite their effectiveness, they have led to the development of resistance in ticks. Plants have b…
Tick control has been carried out through the indiscriminate use of acaricides. However, it is known that the development of resistance to these acaricides by ectoparasites has increased, which leads to the need for new approaches regarding parasite control. Parasite control is based on reducing the frequency of use of synthetic drugs, integrated with other measures, such as the use of im…
The "brown dog tick" (Rhipicephalus sanguineus) is a species of wide national and international relevance from a veterinary medical perspective, due to its wide geographic distribution and transmission of a variety of infectious agents, such as viruses, bacteria, protozoa and nematodes. Conventional methods of tick control use synthetic acaricides that cause resistance of ticks and damage…

The species Rhipicephalus sanguineus l.s. popularly known as the "dog tick", it has great veterinary medical importance, as, in addition to despoiling its hosts, it can be a vector of pathogens that affect domestic animals and humans, including the intracellular bacteria Ehrlichia canis, responsible for Monocytic Ehrlichiosis Canine (EMC), one of the most important in the veterinary field…
Ticks in general represent a great public health concern, since they cause considerable livestock losses and are vectors of many pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa and helminths, affecting domestic/wild animals and human beings as well. The widely used method to control ticks is the use of synthetic chemical acaricides. However, the indiscriminate use of such products can indu…
The genus Rhipicephalus Koch, 1844, comprises about 79 species of ticks recognized, morphologically similar and with taxonomic status for some species still uncertain. Of these, only the dog tick, R. sanguineus "strictu sensu", is recognized in the Neotropical region, but it is known that there may be genetic differences, morphological and biological considerably between different local p…
