Characterization of a phosphomonoesterase from Brucella abortus [PDF]
Brucellae are facultative intracellular bacterial pathogens that reside primarily in cells of the reticuloendothelial system. The high-speed supernatant obtained after centrifuging a suspension of Brucella abortus that had been frozen-thawed and sonicated contained abundant phosphomonoesterase activity, determined by using 4-methylumbelliferylphosphate

Enhancing One Health outcomes using decision science and negotiation
One Health initiatives have advanced zoonotic disease management by recognizing the interconnectedness of three sectors of governance (human, ecosystem, and animal) and by identifying options that can improve full‐system health. Although One Health has had many successes, its full realization may be inhibited by a lack of strategies to overcome ...

Brucella Pneumonia Mimicking Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection prevalent in certain regions. It typically presents with nonspecific symptoms but can also cause focal organ involvement, including the musculoskeletal, neurological, or pulmonary systems. Herein, we present a case of a 31‐year‐old male patient who presented with a 5‐day history of fever and cough.
