Chronic brucellosis and persistence of Brucella melitensis DNA.
After acute brucellosis infection, symptoms persist in a minority of patients for more than 1 year. Such patients are defined as having chronic brucellosis. Since no objective laboratory methods exist to confirm the presence of chronic disease, these patients suffer delays in both diagnosis and treatment. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the usefulness of quantitative real-time PCR ...
متن کاملSuccinoxidase system of Pasteurella tularensis.
Preparation of washed particles. Cell-free extracts of highly virulent P. tularensis strain Sm were prepared by sonic disintegration of cells as described by Rendina and AMills (1957). Twenty ml of undialyzed centrifuged (3000 x G for 30 min) sonic extract, containing 3.8 to 4.2 mg SN per ml, were centrifuged for 3 hr at 105,000 X G at 5 C. The supernatant was decanted and thc reddish precipita...
متن کاملCanine Brucellosis: Brucella canis
Canine brucellosis, caused by Brucella canis, is an important cause of reproductive failure, particularly in kennels. This organism causes abortions, stillbirths, epididymitis, orchitis and sperm abnormalities in dogs. Although dogs that have been spayed or neutered do not have reproductive signs, they occasionally develop other conditions such as ocular disease and discospondylitis. B. canis c...
متن کاملA modified test for Brucella agglutinins.
0.1% Protamine sulphate in normal (0.85% w/v) saline has been used as a diluent in Brucella serology instead of saline as such. The use of protamine sulphate in this concentration has obviated the need for performing the modified Coombs test to detect non-agglutinating Brucella antibodies. This method has been used in the Microbiological Diagnostic Unit of the University of Melbourne in the rou...
متن کاملThe activity of catalase in Pasteurella tularensis.
In an investigation (Sherstinsky, 1951; Yaniv, 1951) of the factors governing the virulence of Pasteurella tularensis (Bacterium tularense), the correlation between the activity of catalase and virulence was studied. This line of approach was suggested by the fact that in the Brucella group (Huddleson and Stahl, 1943) and in PasteureUa pestis (Rockenmacher, 1949) high virulence appears to be as...
