Visceral leishmaniasis is a disease whose etiological agent in Brazil is Leishmania infantum chagasi. Dogs are considered urban reservoirs of the disease, being an indicator of the human cases occurrence. The present study aimed to diagnose L. infantum chagasi infection in stray and owned dogs in Belém, Pará State, by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) using two different antigens. Venous blood samples from adult dogs, regardless of gender or breed, of different neighborhoods in Belém-PA, were collected in tubes with and without anticoagulant to obtain DNA and serum, respectively. These animals were divided into two groups: stray dogs captured by the Center for Zoonosis Control (Group A) and owned do...
