Abstract in Portuguese
A criação industrial de avestruzes no Brasil tem crescido nos últimos anos, mas avestruzes podem ser reservatórios de agentes com potencial zoonótico, como é o caso do vírus da influenza, rotavírus, vírus da encefalomielite eqüina do leste (EEEV) e do oeste (WEEV), salmonela, leptospira e micoplasma. O objetivo deste trabalho foi detectar rotavírus nas fezes de filhotes, anticorpos contra rotavírus, EEEV e WEEV, influenza A , leptospira, salmonela e micoplasma a partir do soro de reprodutores e efetuar o isolamento de Salmonella sp. a partir de de suabe cloacal. Para a detecção de rotavírus nas fezes utilizaram-se as técnicas de PAGE, isolamento viral e genotipagem pela RT-PCR. As técnicas de contraimunoeletroosmoforese, soroneutralização em cultura de células, inibição da hemaglutinação e aglutinação em placa foram utilizadas nos levantamentos sorológicos e a cultura bacteriológica foi utilizada para detecção de Salmonella spp. em suabes de cloaca. Rotavírus do grupo A com genotipos G[6], G[10], P[1] e P[7] foram detectados nas fezes de avestruzes e anticorpos anti-rotavírus em 10 amostras (10/182) de soros colhidos de avestruzes reprodutores. Foram detectados anticorpos para vários sorovares de Leptospira spp. (19/128), Salmonella pullorum (17/182), Mycoplasma gallisepticum (17/182) e Mycoplasma synoviae (47/182). Não foram detectados anticorpos anti-EEEV e WEEV e anti-vírus da Influenza A H3, bem como amostras de Salmonella spp. em suabes de cloaca. Estes resultados permitem sugerir o papel do avestruz na cadeia epidemiológica das rotaviroses e da leptospirose e dão bases para o aprimoramento sanitário do plantel brasileiro desta ave.

Abstract in English
The industrial ostrich breeding in Brazil has grown in the last few years, but ostrich may be reservoirs of potentially zoonotic agents such as influenzavirus, rotavirus, eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV), western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV), Salmonella, Leptospira and Mycoplasma. The aim of the present study was to detect rotavirus in fecal samples of young ostriches, antibodies against rotavirus, EEEV and WEEV, influenza A , Leptospira, Sallmonela and Mycoplasma in sera from breeders and carry out Salmonella isolation in cloacal swabs. For the rotavirus detection, PAGE, viral isolation and genotyping by RT-PCR were used. Counterimmunoelectroosmophoresis, virus neutralisation assay in cell culture, hemagglutination inhibition and plate agglutination were used in the serological surveys and bacteriological culture was used to detetc Salmonella spp. in the cloacal swabs. Group A rotavirus with genotypes G[6], G[10], P[1] and P[7] was detected in the fecal samples and anti-rotavirus antibodies were detected in ten samples (10/182) from breeder ostriches. Antibodies to different serovars of Leptospira spp. (19/128), Salmonella pullorum (17/182), Mycoplasma gallisepticum (17/182) and Mycoplasma synoviae (47/182) were detected. Antibodies against EEEV, WEEV and influenzavirus A H3 were not detected, as well as Salmonella spp. in swab samples. These results allow one to suggest a role to ostriches in the epidemiological chain of rotavirus diseases and leptospirosis and give basis to the improvement of the sanitary condition of the Brazilian flocks.
