Molecular and Serological Detection of Coxiella burnetii in Small Ruminants in Northeastern Brazil
• Serology indicates that one‐third of the sheep and goats had previously been infected with Coxiella burnetii. • qPCR analysis revealed the ongoing presence of C. burnetii in all evaluated flocks, each with a previous history of reproductive disorders. • These results indicate the need for preventive measures and control of C.

Biological activities of Brucella abortus lipopolysaccharides [PDF]
Purified lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from smooth (s) and rough (R) strains of Brucella abortus and lipid A isolated from S-LPS by mild acid hydrolysis were examined in several assays of biological activity. Brucella S- and R-LPSs and Brucella lipid A activated the complement cascade.

The prevalence of camel brucellosis was 4.36%. Being adult, female and large herds were significant risk factors for camel brucellosis. The prevalence of human brucellosis was 3.08%. The presence of a positive animal in the household and camel farmers who consume raw milk were significant factors for human brucellosis.
