DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0007311
Abstract: Brucella abortus and B. melitensis have been reported in several studies in animals in Zimbabwe but the extent of the disease remains poorly known. Thus, characterizing the circulating strains is a critical first step in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0262551
Abstract: Brucellae are intracellular sneaky bacteria and they can elude the host’s defensive mechanisms, resulting in therapeutic failure. Therefore, the goal of this investigation was to rapid identification of Brucella species collected from animals and humans… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0269831
Abstract: Human brucellosis diagnosis has been a challenge in Brucella-endemic areas. In Kenya, diagnosis is usually carried out using Febrile Brucella Antigen agglutination test (FBAT) whose performance is not well documented. This paper reports on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0269963
Abstract: Brucellosis is an endemic zoonotic disease caused by Brucella species, which are intramacrophage pathogens that make treating this disease challenging. The negative effects of the treatment regime have prompted the development of new antimicrobials against… read more here.
