BRUCELLOSIS DIAGNOSIS |
|
|
|
Brucellosis is usually diagnosed by
detecting one or more Brucella species in blood or urine samples.
The bacteria may be positively identified using biochemical methods
or using a technique whereby, if present in the sample, the
brucellosis bacteria are made to fluoresce. Brucellosis may also be
diagnosed by culturing and isolating the bacteria from one of the
above samples. Blood samples will also indicate elevated antibody
levels or increased amounts of a protein produced directly in
response to infection with brucellosis bacteria. |
