Resumo: The aim of this study was to standardize a multiplex PCR (mPCR) reaction to detect Microsporum canis, Microsporum gypseum and the Trichophyton mentagrophytes complex in fur and/or crusts samples of dogs and cats. 250 samples were analyzed by direct examination and culture; The DNA from these samples was extracted using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue extraction kit (QIAGEN®, Hilden-Germany). For the PCR, primers were designed for the M. canis, M. gypseum and T. mentagrophytes species and the DNA extracted from colonies of M. canis (URM 6273), M. gypseum (URM 6921) and T. mentagrophytes (URM 6211) from the Collection of Cultures of the Micoteca of the Mycology Department of the Biological Sciences Center of the Federal University of Pernambuco, were utilized as positive controls. A PCR for the detection of M. canis and an mPCR for the detection of M. canis, M. gypseum and the T. mentagrophytes complex was standardized. The protocols standardized in this study, from drawn primers, showed good sensitivity and high specificity in the detection of M. canis, M. gypseum and T. mentagrophytes directly from samples of fur and/or crusts of dogs and cats, making possible a faster and specificity in the results, can be used in the laboratory routine as methods capable of speeding the detection of the agents in question.
