A histoquímica no diagnóstico de micobacterioses em órgãos de mamíferos silvestres

O diagnóstico histoquímico de micobacterioses, através da visualização de bacilos álcool-ácido resistentes (BAAR), em esfregaços corados mediante a técnica de Ziehl-Neelsen, a partir de amostras de tecidos, é considerada como uma boa técnica de diagnóstico presuntivo. Neste estudo pretendeu-se avaliar a frequência de visualização de BAAR em rim e gânglios linfáticos mesentéricos com lesões granulomatosas em vea...
