Screening Brucella spp. in bovine raw milk by real-time quantitative PCR and conventional methods in a pilot region of vaccination, Edirne, Turkey

Abstract: Brucellosis is a worldwide zoonotic disease transmitted to humans by consumption of contaminated milk and milk products. Brucellosis is endemic in Turkey, and Edirne has a high Brucella prevalence. Brucellosis is prevented by live-attenuated vaccines for animals and the vaccination program has been in place since 1984 in Turkey. Thrace is the pilot region for this vaccination program. The gold standard diagnostic technique for brucellosis is still the isolation of suspicious bacterial colonies followed by bact… Show more

“…In this study, B. melitensis was identified at species level using the BMEII0466 gene. Many RTi-PCR applications usually distinguish different Brucella species (Sola et al 2014;Kaynak-Onurdag et al 2016). The Brucella genus shows higher sequence similarity, and this makes it challenging for the identification of different Brucella species (Kaden et al 2017).…”

“…Recently, the PCR technique has increasingly been performed as a diagnostic and a confirmation method in Brucella spp. Identification (23,24). In this study, detection of polymorphism for all Bruclla isolates by the omp2a gene as a target of PCR-RFLP and Pst1 enzyme was carried out.…”

“…Accurate identi cation of Brucella species in different hosts is of great importance for updating our epidemiological knowledge of brucellosis. Although culture and isolation of Brucella have been considered as the gold standard methods for brucellosis diagnosis [18], these methods are tedious, time consuming and di cult to implement in developing countries [19]. To overcome these challenges, molecular tools have been developed to identify different Brucella species in naturally infected hosts [20,21,22].…”
