Typing Discrepancy Between Phenotypic and Molecular Characterization Revealing an Emerging Biovar 9 Variant of Smooth Phage-Resistant B. abortus Strain 8416 in China

A newly isolated smooth colony morphology phage-resistant strain 8416 isolated from a 45-year-old cattle farm cleaner with clinical features of brucellosis in China was reported. The most unusual phenotype was its resistance to two Brucella phages Tbilisi and Weybridge, but sensitive to Berkeley 2, a pattern similar to that of Brucella melitensis biovar 1. VITEK 2 biochemical identification sys...

Killing of Brucella abortus by bovine serum.

Studies of the serum bactericidal system in bovine brucellosis were undertaken to investigate the role of the humoral immune response in protection of cattle against the facultative intracellular parasite Brucella abortus. Fresh sera from normal control cattle, infected cattle, and cattle immunized with B. abortus cell envelopes were collected before treatment and during the course of immunizat...

Therapeutic efficacy of Brucella phage against Brucella abortus in mice model

Aim: To investigate the preventive and therapeutic potential of brucella phage in experimentally infected mice with Brucella abortus (strain 544). Materials and Methods: Three groups of mice each containing 6 individuals were infected with Brucella abortus (strain 544). A preventive group was infected with Brucella abortus (strain 544), 48 hrs before phage treatment. A therapeutic group was pha...

Ability of mononuclear phagocytes from cattle naturally resistant or susceptible to brucellosis to control in vitro intracellular survival of Brucella abortus.

The role of bovine mammary macrophages and peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophages in natural resistance to bovine brucellosis was evaluated. A group of 11 naturally resistant and 10 chronically infected susceptible cows was studied following challenge with Brucella abortus. Macrophages from a greater proportion (P less than 0.026) of naturally resistant cows were significantly superior t...
