INTRODUCTION Brucellosis is one of the most important zoonotic diseases that affects multiple livestock species and causes great economic losses. The highly conserved genomes of Brucella, with > 90% homology among species, makes it important to study the genetic diversity circulating in the country. METHODOLOGY A total of 26 Brucella spp. (4 reference strains and 22 field isolates) and 1 B. m...
متن کاملA Case of Identity Confirmation of Brucella abortus S99 by Phage Typing and PCR Methods
Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection that is associated with fever in humans and abortion in animals. The agent of this disease is a facultative intracellular gram-negative coccobacillus called Brucella. There are six classic species, including B. abortus, B. melitensis, B. suis, B. canis, B. neotomae, and B. ovis. In recent years, four new species have been reported,...

Background: Brucella sps are Gram negative, facultative intracellular bacteria causing brucellosis in humans and animals. Since it is a multi-organ disease and symptoms are nonspecific the diagnosis by clinical finding is difficult and can be missed .Many serological tests have been used form the diagnosis of human brucellosis. This study compared the diagnostic value of in-house ELISA and IFA ...
