RESUMO
Foram analisados 600 soros de bovinos abatidos nos matadouros sob Inspeção Municipal de Ilhéus e Itabuna, e no matadouro frigorífico sob Inspeção Federal em Jequié, BA, para anticorpos anti-Toxoplasma gondii por imunofluorescência indireta. A prevalência total foi de 11,83 por cento (71), sendo os animais positivos 19,3 por cento (37) no matadouro de Ilhéus, 9,8 por cento em Itabuna (21) e 6,8 por cento (13) em Jequié. Dos animais positivos, 65 (91,5 por cento) tiveram título de 164, e 6 (8,5 por cento) de 1256. A maioria dos soros positivos para T. gondii foram oriundos de animais provenientes de granjas leiteiras e foram abatidos nos matadouros sob inspeção municipal em comparação com aqueles animais que procederam de fazendas com criação extensiva, e abatidos em matadouros sob inspeção federal.
ABSTRACT
Serum samples of 600 slaughtered cattle from Ilhéus and Itabuna Municipal slaughterhouse and Jequié Federal slaughterhouse, all of them located in the State of Bahia were screened using an indirect immunofluorescent antibody test against Toxoplasma gondii. Prevalence was 11.83 percent (71), and positive samples were distributed as 19.3 percent (37) from Ilhéus, 9.8 percent (21) from Itabuna and 6.8 percent (13) from Jequié slaughterhouses respectively. From positive cattle, 91.5 percent (65) had titles 164, and 8.5 percent (6) had title 1256. The majority of serum positive samples against T. gondii were related to animals from dairy farms which were slaughtered at municipality stockyards under municipal inspection in comparison with those slaughtered at Federal inspection which were related to beef cattle that were raised in farms extensively.
