WHAT DOES BRUCELLA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

brucella

Brucella

Brucella is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria named after David Bruce. They are small, non-motile, non-encapsulated coccobacilli, which function as facultative intracellular parasites. Brucella is the cause of brucellosis, which is a zoonosis. It is transmitted by ingesting contaminated food, direct contact with an infected animal, or inhalation of aerosols. Transmission from human to human, for example through sexual intercourse or from mother to child, is exceedingly rare, but possible. Minimum infectious exposure is between 10 - 100 organisms. The different species of Brucella are genetically very similar, although each has a slightly different host specificity. Hence, the NCBI taxonomy includes most Brucella species under Brucella melitensis. The many names of brucellosis include: ▪ Malta fever/Bang’s disease ▪ Undulant fever/enzootic abortion ▪ Mediterranean fever/epizootic abortion ▪ Rock fever of Gibraltar/slinking of calves ▪ Gastric fever/ram epididymitis ▪ Contagious abortion/spontaneous abortion...
