Species identification and molecular typing of human Brucella isolates from Kuwait.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2017

Abstract excerpt

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease of major concern in Kuwait and the Middle East. Human brucellosis can be caused by several Brucella species with varying degree of pathogenesis, and relapses are common after apparently successful therapy. The classical biochemical methods for identification of Brucella are time-consuming, cumbersome, and provide information limited to the species level only. In contrast,...
