Title in Portuguese
Determinação da concentração inibitória mínima de antibióticos contra ureaplasmas isolados de bovinos pela inibição de crescimento e citometria de fluxo.
Keywords in Portuguese
Ureaplasma diversum
Antibióticos
CIM
Citômetro de fluxo
Concentração inibitória mínima
Suscetibilidade
Abstract in Portuguese
Os Mollicutes causam doenças em várias espécies animais de importância econômica, inclusive em bovinos. Neste estudo, foi avaliada por concentração inibitória mínima (CIM) e citometria de fluxo, a atividade de oito agentes antibacterianos (enrofloxacina, ciprofloxacina, gentamicina, claritromicina, cloranfenicol, oxitetraclina, tiamulina e tilosina) contra Ureaplasma diversum. Foram analisadas 24 amostras de isolados de campo oriundas da mucosa genital de fêmeas bovinas. As amostras foram confirmadas por crescimento em caldo, placa e por PCR. Os inóculos foram submetidos à analise de suscetibilidade aos antibióticos pelo método da microdiluição em microplaca e posteriormente analisados pelo citômetro de fluxo a fim de avaliar a atividade antimicrobiana nas células. A claritromicina apresentou os maiores índices de inibição in vitro, sendo a gentamicina considerada o antibiótico de menor espectro de ação nesse estudo. De acordo com as análises do citômetro, a gentamicina apresentou o menor número de células viáveis enquanto a tiamulina apresentou o maior número. Embora haja resultados destoantes entre as técnicas utilizadas, o citômetro de fluxo pode ser utilizado como uma boa ferramenta para auxiliar a avaliação da suscetibilidade desses microrganismos a antibióticos.

Abstract in English
The Mollicutes cause disease in several economically important species, including cattle. In this study, was evaluated by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and flow cytometry, the activity of eight antibacterial agents (enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, clarithromycin, chloramphenicol, oxitetraclina, tiamulin and tylosin) against Ureaplasma diversum. We analyzed 24 samples of field isolates originating from the genital mucosa of cows. The samples were confirmed by growth in broth, plate, and PCR. The inoculations were subjected to analysis of susceptibility to antibiotics by the method of micro-dilution plate and then analyzed by flow cytometry to assess the antimicrobial activity in cells. Clarithromycin showed the highest levels of inhibition in vitro, the antibiotic gentamicin considered lower spectrum of action in this study. According to the analysis of the flow cytometer, gentamicin showed the lowest number of viable cells as tiamulin showed the greatest number. Although there are divergent results between the techniques used, flow cytometry can be used as a good tool even help assess the susceptibility of microorganisms to antibiotics.
