A Novel PCR Assay for Detecting Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis
Brucellosis is a major zoonotic disease that poses a significant public health threat worldwide. The classical bacteriological detection process used to identify Brucella spp. is difficult and time-consuming. This study aimed to develop a novel molecular assay for detecting brucellosis.All complete sequences of chromosome 1 with 2.1-Mbp lengths were ...

Reproductive pathological changes in mice associated with Brucella melitensis and its lipopolysaccharides [PDF]
Brucella melitensis is the gram-negative, aerobic bacteria that cause brucellosis in goats. Brucellosis causes abortion in wild and domestic animals resulting in enormous financial losses.

Brucellosis: Epizootiologic and diagnostic challenge [PDF]
Although it has been known as a separate etiological entity for almost 150 years, brucellosis is, on a global scale, one of the most frequent diseases that is transferred from animals to humans. It is present as an endemic disease in almost all countries

Comparison of two multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis methods for molecular strain typing of human Brucella melitensis isolates from the Middle East [PDF]
Brucella species are highly monomorphic, with minimal genetic variation among species, hindering the development of reliable subtyping tools for epidemiologic and phylogenetic analyses.

Comprehensive Identification of Immunodominant Proteins of Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis Using Antibodies in the Sera from Naturally Infected Hosts [PDF]
Brucellosis is a debilitating zoonotic disease that affects humans and animals. The diagnosis of brucellosis is challenging, as accurate species level identification is not possible with any of the currently available serology-based diagnostic methods ...

Brucella melitensis infection in sheep: present and future. [PDF]
Sheep brucellosis, a zoonosis mainly due to B. melitensis (biovar 1, 2 or 3), remains widespread world-wide. Pathologically and epidemiologically, the disease is very similar to B. abortus infection in cattle. The live B. melitensis Rev 1 strain is currently considered as the best vaccine available for the control of sheep brucellosis, especially when ...
