Evaluation of the relatedness of Brucella spp. and Ochrobactrum anthropi and description of Ochrobactrum intermedium sp. nov., a new species with a closer relationship to Brucella spp.

Abstract excerpt

The relatedness of Brucella spp. and Ochrobactrum anthropi was studied by protein profiling, Western blot, immunoelectrophoresis and 16S rRNA analysis. Whole-cell and soluble proteins of brucellae and O. anthropi showed serological cross-reactivities quantitatively and qualitatively more intense than those existing with similar extracts of Agrobacterium spp. Numerical analysis of Western blot profiles of...
