Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Associated with Brucellosis in Livestock Owners in Jordan [PDF]
We evaluated livestock owners' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding brucellosis in Jordan. A questionnaire was administered and biological samples were examined to verify the serological status of animals. Seroprevalence estimates indicated that

The HWE‐family histidine kinase PhyK regulates the cell envelope structure of the intracellular pathogen Brucella ovis and affects how the host immune system responds to this bacterium. Deletion of phyK alters bacterial survival in the face of detergent stress and reduces immune activation in infected macrophages.

IL-1R and inflammasomes mediate early pulmonary protective mechanisms in respiratory brucella abortus infection [PDF]
Brucella spp. infection is frequently acquired through contaminated aerosols. The role of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in the early pulmonary response to respiratory Brucella infection is unknown.

Morphological analysis of the sheathed flagellum of Brucella melitensis [PDF]
It was recently shown that B. melitensis is flagellated. However, the flagellar structure remains poorly described.We analyzed the structure of the polar sheathed flagellum of B. melitensis by TEM analysis and demonstrated that the Ryu staining is a good method to quickly visualize the flagellum by optical microscopy. The TEM analysis demonstrated that

The Role of Foxes in Transmitting Zoonotic Bacteria to Humans: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases inflict substantial burdens on human and animal populations worldwide, and many of these infections are bacterial. An Australian study investigating environmental risk factors for Buruli ulcer in humans detected the causative agent, Mycobacterium ulcerans, in the faeces of wild foxes, a novel finding that suggests foxes may ...

Food risk perception involves an individual's assessment of the presence of safety attributes in food. The survey utilized a structured questionnaire administered via the computer‐assisted web interviewing (CAWI) method. The results provide valuable insights to inform risk communication strategies to be adopted by risk managers.

Human to Human Transmission of Brucella Melitensis [PDF]
Human brucellosis is acquired mainly through contact with infected animal tissues, ingestion of unpasteurized dairy products or infected aerosols. Person to person transmission is still considered uncertain. The case of a woman diagnosed with proven brucellosis after her husband suffered a relapse of bacteremia with Brucella melitensis biotype 3, which

ABSTRACT In autumn 2017, an unusual mortality event of Baltic grey seals (Halichoerus grypus grypus) occurred at the German Baltic coast. An alarming 23 carcasses of healthy, well‐fed, male large grey seals were found in a confined area in the Greifswald Bay (Mecklenburg‐Western Pomerania) in < 10 weeks from September to December.
