Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed blood samples from 400 dogs infected with Leishmania and Ehrlichia using PCR to identify infections and assess clinical symptoms.
- PCR results indicated a high prevalence of Leishmania infection at 84.75%, while parasitological tests showed 63.25% for Leishmania and 31.75% for Ehrlichia.
- The findings suggest that conventional PCR is an effective diagnostic tool for canine visceral leishmaniasis and can be combined with other methods for accurate species identification in complex cases.
