Abstract

The presence of enterobacterial diseases in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus), caused by Escherichia coli, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Salmonella typhimorium, as well as the excessive use of antibiotics and other medicines that leave residual actions in animal meat, constitute the basic elements of the problem which originated this research that was developed in three phases: a) determination of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of apitoxin for enterobacteria of guinea pigs in the fattening phase, b) action of apitoxin in the treatment of clinically diseased guinea pigs by enterobacteria, and c ) solutions of apitoxin as a preventive for the enterobacteria attack in guinea pigs. Therefore, the objective of this third phase, the reason for this article, was to determine the effects of simultaneous dilutions of 0.7 and 0.8 mg / l-10 of apitoxin in enterobacteria cultures, to attenuate their virulence or pathogenic intelligence, highlighting that these concentrations are the result of phases a and b of the research, related to the use of apitoxin in solutions against pathogenic enterobacteria for guinea pigs. After the trial development in 35 in 3-month old guinea pigs, the results confirmed the in vitro values of the MICs of 0.7 and 0.8 mg / l-10 with 10 simultaneous dilutions for immunological protections for the three enterobacteria, the responses evaluated by thymus lymphoid organometry, spleen and mesenteric lymph in size (mm) and weight (g), as well as for guinea pig mortality. Concluding that the bee venom (Apis mellifera) has the possibility of attenuating the virulence of the enterobacteria under study.
