A multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction assay with two internal controls for the detection of Brucella species in tissues, blood, and feces from marine mammals

Abstract: Abstract. Brucellosis has emerged as a disease of concern in marine mammals in the last 2 decades. Molecular detection techniques have the potential to address limitations of other methods for detecting infection with Brucella in these species. Presented herein is a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method targeting the Brucella genus-specific bcsp31 gene. The method also includes a target to a conserved region of the eukaryotic mitochondrial 16S ribosomal RNA gene to assess suitability of extracted DN… Show more

“…Also numerous reports mentioned the use of bcsp31 for specific identification of genus Brucella from seropositive, active, relapsing, chronic cases in humans (Kattar et al, 2007;Mitka et al, 2007;Queipo-Ortuno et al, 2008). Recently the same gene target has been used specifically to detect Brucella in human serum, blood and cerebro-spinal fluid (Debeaumont et al, 2005;Colmenero et al, 2011;Sohrabi et al, 2011), in buffalo milk (Amoroso et al, 2011) and in clinical tissues from seals (Sidor et al, 2013).…”

“…Most of these reports indicated above were based on clinical studies derived from samples from human cases, and the selected gene targets were bcsp 31 or the IS711 element. But fewer number of such studies have been conducted on animals or animal products (Amoroso et al, 2011;Sohrabi et al, 2011;Dehkordi et al, 2012;Sidor et al, 2013;El Behiry et al, 2014;Dean et al, 2014). However, reports on validation of qPCR for brucellosis are still scarce in the literature (Probert et al, 2004;Debeaumont et al, 2005;Amoroso et al, 2011;Sidor et al, 2013).…”
