Short communication: Detection of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis by polymerase chain reaction in bovine milk in Brazil

Abstract: Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent of paratuberculosis, or Johne's disease, a chronic granulomatous enteritis that affects all ruminants worldwide. Since the isolation of MAP from intestinal tissue of human patients bearing Crohn's disease, there has been a debate on the possibility of this agent playing a role in the etiology of Crohn's disease. Milk could be the potential vehicle for transmission to humans. Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis has already been detecte… Show more

“…This association has aroused great scientific interest since the 1980s, when Chiodini et al (1984) isolated MAP and its DNA from biological tissues in CD patients. Based on these observations, the link between MAP and CD has been widely investigated through direct and indirect methods for MAP detection (Chiodini et al, 2012). In Brazil, the presence of MAP DNA and the viability of MAP in raw and retail pasteurized milk (Carvalho et al, 2009(Carvalho et al, , 2012 and artisanal coalho cheese (Faria et al, 2014) has been proven, suggesting that live organisms might be transmitted to humans by ingestion of contaminated products.…”

“…Contudo, darCorso Filho et al (1960) identificaram a doença em bovinos nascidos e criados no Brasil. Registros subsequentes da enfermidade foram verificados em diferentes estados brasileiros (Portugal et al, 1979;raMos et al, 1986;drieMeier et al, 1999;CarValho et al, 2009;, demonstrando que a doença ocorre em rebanhos nacionais. Os métodos para determinar a prevalência da paratuberculose em diferentes estados brasileiros ainda são fundamentados em diferentes metodologias, apresentando resultados que não possibilitam uma avaliação total do acometimento dos rebanhos no país.…”

“…Assim, acredita-se que fato semelhante de suscetibilidade ocorra nas espécies ovina e caprina. Dada essa suposição, deve-se considerar a maior chance de infecções em animais jovens, levando-se em conta a existência de estudos comprovando a presença de MAP no leite e/ou no colostro de vacas, ovelhas e cabras com infecção clínica ou subclínica (sWeeney et al, 1992a;CarValho et al, 2009;diMareli-Malli, 2010).…”
