ABSTRACT

La estreptococosis es uno de los problemas sanitarios más serios en la acuicultura mundial. En Colombia la enfermedad afecta de manera importante las explotaciones de tilapia. Se estandarizó la técnica de hibridación in situ (HIS) en tejidos de tilapia previamente identificados como positivos a la presencia de S. agalactiae por la técnica de inmunoperoxidasa indirecta (IPI) y microbiología. Se obtuvo señal positiva en el interior de los granulomas con una especificidad del 100%. Se logró amplificar significativamente la señal mediante el uso de la tiramida. La HIS en tejidos de tilapia puede ser usada para el diagnóstico y estudios de patogenésis y epidemiológicos con este microorganismo. Se requieren futuras investigaciones para optimizar la marcación de las bacterias libres en los tejidos y evaluar la sensibilidad de la técnica.


Streptococcosis is one of the most important health problems in world aquaculture. In Colombia, the disease affects significantly tilapia farms. The standardization of the HIS technique was achieved in tilapia tissues previously identified as positive for thepresence of S. agalactiae by other techniques as indirect immunoperoxidase technique (IPI) and microbiology. Positive signal was obtained within the granulomas with specificity of 100%. The usefulness of the tiramide about increasing the signal intensity was confirmed. The HIS in tilapia tissues can be used in the diagnosis, pathogenesis and epidemiological studies of the disease. Further research is required to optimize the hybridization of bacteria located free in the tissues and to assess the technique sensitivity.
