MLVA16 Typing of Portuguese Human and Animal Brucella melitensis and Brucella abortus Isolates
To investigate the epidemiological relationship of isolates from different Portuguese geographical regions and to assess the diversity among isolates, the MLVA16(Orsay) assay (panels 1, 2A and 2B) was performed with a collection of 126 Brucella melitensis (46 human and 80 animal isolates) and 157 B. abortus field isolates, seven vaccine strains and the representative reference strains of each s...
متن کاملGenome Sequences of Human and Livestock Isolates of Brucella melitensis and Brucella abortus from the Country of Georgia
Brucellosis, which is among the most widespread global zoonotic diseases, is endemic in the nation of Georgia and causes substantial human morbidity and economic loss. Here, we report whole-genome sequences of three Brucella melitensis and seven Brucella abortus isolates from cattle, sheep, and humans that represent genetic groups discovered in Georgia.
متن کاملDevelopment of a Differential PCR Assay for Detection of Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis: an Analytical Approach for Monitoring of Brucella spp. in Foods of Animal Origin
Background: Classical bacteriological detection of Brucella species from food, and environment is routinely carried out based on morphological and biochemical characteristics. However, for increasing specificity and sensitivity of species identification methods, development of a molecular assay is necessary that was main aim of this study. Methods: Panel of some reference strains belonging to ...
متن کاملComparison of Rose Bengal Plate Test Antigens Prepared from Brucella Abortus, Brucella Melitensis and Brucella Suis
Rose bengal plate test (RBPT) antigens from Brucella melitensis and Brucella suis S 2 were prepared and compared with RBPT antigen prepared from classical Brucella abortus S 99. A total of 54 sera samples, of which 7 were collected from humans with brucellosis and 47 from infected sheep, were studied by using RBPT and serum agglutination test (SAT). RBPT and SAT results showed that RBPT antigen...
متن کاملEpidemiology of brucellosis in domestic animals caused by Brucella melitensis, Brucella suis and Brucella abortus.
Brucellosis is a disease that causes severe economic losses for livestock farms worldwide. Brucella melitensis, B. abortus and B. suis, which are transmitted between animals both vertically and horizontally, cause abortion and infertility in their primary natural hosts - goats and sheep (B. melitensis), cows (B. abortus) and sows (B. suis). Brucella spp. infect not only their preferred hosts bu...
