Cultivo e linhagens celulares aplicadas na biotecnologia e no diagnóstico virológico da medicina veterinária: revisão de literatura

Abstract

The objective of this Residency Conclusion Work (TCR) was to describe the activities of the residency in Preventive Veterinary Medicine - Animal Virology, developed in the Laboratory of Animal Virology (LAVIAN), in the area of Preventive Veterinary Medicine - Animal Virology, as well as to perform a literature review on cell culture. During the residency period compulsory subjects were studied, divided into: common core mandatory for all areas, specific core of the concentration area and common core of the concentration area. At LAVIAN training activities were developed on collection and processing of biological material; diagnostic techniques applied to the diagnosis of viral diseases; interpretation of results; application of biosafety rules and laboratory organization of materials, reagents, samples and assets. Besides the theoretical and practical activities at LAVIAN, activities were developed at the Brazilian National Health System (SUS), in the following areas: Health Surveillance, Epidemiological Surveillance and Environmental Surveillance. The residency program is important for building a more solid professional career, directed to a specialty, and from where many professional and personal teachings are born. The cell culture technique and the different cell lines are extremely important for Biotechnology in human health and in Veterinary Medicine. Its improvement over the years has provided molecular biology and virology with more precise diagnoses and more efficient products.
