Meanwhile, I'm using code below, that worked:
    double total = 7.50;
    IFormatProvider formato = new CultureInfo("en-US", true);
    String aux = String.Format("{0:c}", total);
    aux = aux.Replace(",", "-");
    aux = aux.Replace(".", ",");
    aux = aux.Replace("-", ".");
    aux = aux.Replace("$", "R$");
