Isolation, identification, and molecular charac- terization of Brucella melitensis from aborted sheep fetuses in Kars, Turkey
Brucellosis is an emerging zoonosis and an economically important infectious disease of livestock with worldwide distribution [14]. The disease is manifested by abortion and infertility and caused by Brucella spp. which are Gramnegative, facultative intracellular bacteria. Six species in the genus of Brucella are currently recognized on the basis of the phenotypic characteristics, antigenic pro...
متن کاملCloning and molecular characterization of Omp31 gene from Brucella melitensis Rev 1 strain
Brucellosis, caused by the genus Brucella bacterium, is a well-known infection among domestic animals. Considering the serious economic and medical consequences of this infection, various preventive efforts have been made through using recombinant vaccines, based on outer membrane protein (OMP) antigens of Brucella species. The objective of the present study was to clone, analyze the sequence, ...
متن کاملIsolation and biotyping of Brucella melitensis from aborted sheep and goat fetuses
The possible role of Brucella spp. in 65 abortion cases, 55 from sheep and 10 from goats, occurring in the birth seasons of 2004 and 2005 in northwestern Turkey was investigated. Colony morphology, agglutination by acriflavin, H2S production, CO2 requirement, dye sensitivity in thionin, basic fuchsin, growth characteristics in streptomycin, lysis with Tbilisi phage, and agglutination with monos...
متن کاملIsolation and Biotyping of Brucella Melitensis from Aborted Sheep Foetuses in Turkey
Aborted sheep foetuses were collected during the lambing seasons of 2004 to 2006. B. melitensis was isolated from 25 (29.76%) of 84 lungs and stomach contents. Based on the biochemical tests and agglutination test with monospecific A and M antisera, the isolates were determined as B. melitensis biotype 3. The isolation of the B. melitensis from aborted sheep foetuses may show the importance of ...
متن کاملIsolation, cloning and expression of the Brucella melitensis Omp31 gene
Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease transmitted to humans either from animals or from their products.Although brucellosis can be found worldwide, the Mediterranean Basin, South and Central America, EasternEurope, Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Middle East have currently been listed as high-risk regions. Thegenus Brucella is classified in at least nine species. Brucella melitensis is the glo...
