Brucella Melitensis

Intended Use
Determination of Brucella antibodies in human Serum Qualitatively or Semi-Quantitavely.
Background
Human Brucellosis is a common febrile illness caused by infection with bacteria of some of the Brucella species as Melitensis. Symptoms of this illness are variable and non- specific with chills, fever, sweats and anorexia. The body responds to Brucellosis by producing specific antibodies whose titres rise slowly at early stages. These antibodies can be detected after a few weeks of exposure and are important in the diagnosis of Brucellosis.
