Recovery of a medieval Brucella melitensis genome using shotgun metagenomics [PDF]

, 2014
Shotgun metagenomics provides a powerful assumption-free approach to the recovery of pathogen genomes from contemporary and historical material. We sequenced the metagenome of a calcified nodule from the skeleton of a 14th-century middle-aged male ...

Identification of Main Brucella species Implicated in Ovine and Caprine Abortion Cases by Molecular and Classical Methods [PDF]

Archives of Razi Institute, 2021
Brucellosis is recognized as a major public health concern leading to critical economic losses in livestock animals. The present study assessed Brucella spp. isolated from aborted ovine and caprine fetuses in different parts of Iran between 2016 and 2019.

Incidence of virulence genes in predominant Brucella strains among domestic animals in Egypt

Bulgarian Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2023
To investigate the incidence of the virulence genes among predominant Brucella strains in infected cattle, buffaloes, sheep, goats, and camels as well as in humans in Egypt, a total of 263 samples (85 milk, 167 tissue, 11 whole blood samples), yielded ...

Btp Proteins from Brucella abortus Modulate the Lung Innate Immune Response to Infection by the Respiratory Route [PDF]

, 2017
Although inhalation of infected aerosols is a frequent route for Brucella infection in humans, it rarely causes pulmonary clinical manifestations, suggesting a mild or nearly absent local inflammatory response.

The Glutaminase-dependent system confers extreme acid resistance to new species and atypical strains of Brucella [PDF]

, 2017
Neutralophilic bacteria have developed specific mechanisms to cope with the acid stress encountered in environments such as soil, fermented foods, and host compartments. In Escherichia coli, the glutamate decarboxylase (Gad)-dependent system is extremely

Brucellosis and chlamydiosis seroprevalence in goats at livestock–wildlife interface areas of Zimbabwe [PDF]

, 2019
In Zimbabwe, there have been no chlamydiosis and limited brucellosis studies in goats. This study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence and risk factors of the two diseases in goats at three different livestock–wildlife interface areas: porous ...

Geographical distribution of Brucella melitensis inferred from rpoB gene variation

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2017
Introduction: Currently available tests have limitations for the identification of Brucella species and strains, and their genetic lineage. The genome sequence of the rpoB gene encoding the β-subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase was investigated for ...

A Retrospective Study (2015–2020) on the Risk Factors Associated with the Persistence and Spread of Brucellosis in Buffalo Farms in Caserta Province, Italy

Veterinary Sciences
Bovine and bubaline brucellosis is still present in some regions of Italy. Although control and eradication measures have been implemented for several years, the brucellosis situation remains problematic in the Campania region.

The clinical manifestations and laboratory test results of Brucella melitensis and Brucella abortus in acute brucellosis patients

Journal of Infection and Public Health
Background: Brucellosis is an emerging zoonotic disease worldwide. Brucella melitensis, Brucella abortus, Brucella suis, and Brucella canis are the main etiologic agents causing human brucellosis.
