Resumo
Although there is a great diversity of techniques and antigens used in the serodiagnosis of canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL), total sensitivity and specificity have not yet been found. Since the use of amastigote forms in the indirect immunofluorescence assay has shown an improvement in the specificity of the test for the diagnosis of CVL, the performance of amastigotes forms of L. (L.) infantum chagasi as antigen source were evaluated in automatized ELISA WA using crude antigen of axenic amastigote and purified amastigote from spleen of hamster chronically infected comparing with ELISA using total antigen produced with promastigote forms of L. (L.) infantum chagasi. One hundred and fifteen sera from dogs with positive parasitological diagnosis by PCR were used. The animals were classified into 2 groups: symptomatic (n = 67) and asymptomatic (n = 48) animals, in accordance with the clinical signs and laboratory tests were. As control, ninety-four sera from dogs with negative parasitological diagnosis were included. No significant difference was found in sensitivity, specificity, predictive values and accuracy between ELISA using whole antigens produced with both axenic and purified amastigotes in comparison with promastigotes forms. Correlation and concordance between the three total antigens tested in ELISA was observed. According to the similar performance among antigens, data pointed out to use antigen from promastigote forms for diagnosing canine leishmaniasis, especially due the easily in the production, lower cost and the abundance of correlative literature.
