Meanwhile, I'm using code below, that worked:
  using System.Globalization;
  [...] 
     double total = 7.50;
      IFormatProvider formato = new CultureInfo("en-US", true);
      String aux = total.ToString("c", formato);
      aux = aux.Replace(",", "-");
      aux = aux.Replace(".", ",");
      aux = aux.Replace("-", ".");
      aux = aux.Replace("$", "R$");
  [...]
