Molecular techniques have been used increasingly as tools for the diagnosis by detecting the rabies virus genome. This study aimed to detect the presence of rabies virus in the wash of skull and in different organs of the genus Artibeus bats using the hemi-nested RT-PCR (hnRT-PCR) and Real Time RT-PCR molecular techniques. From approximately 4,000 specimens of bats received at the Institute Pasteur for rabies diagnosis, 30 bats of the genus Artibeus were selected, with records of positive results for rabies by the traditional techniques of direct fluorescent antibody test (FAT) and inoculation of murine neuroblastoma cell line (N2A). Salivary glands, urinary bladders, kidneys, lungs, and also the washes of the skullcaps of the specimens were collected. The... |

The aim of this study was to detect the rabies virus (RABV) presence in different organs of frugivorous bats using molecular techniques such as RT‐PCR, hnRT‐PCR, and the Real Time RT‐PCR. Thirty bats of the genus Artibeus were selected and resulted as positive by the DFA test and N2A‐cells inoculation test using brain tissue in both tests. Samples of salivary gland tissue, urinary bladder tissue, kidney tissue, lung tissue, stool, and skull lavage were collected for molecular assays. The organs and the stool were diluted at 1:10 (w/v) and the urinary bladder was diluted at 1:20 (w/v). The RT‐PCR and the hnRT‐PCR were performed using specific nucleoprotein gene‐target primers. The product obtained by reverse transcription technique was submitted to the Real... |
