摘要: Members of the genus Brucella are categorized as biothreat agents and pose a hazard for both humans animals. Current identification methods rely on biochemical tests that may require up to 7 days results. We sequenced 16S rRNA genes 65 strains along with 17 related likely present differential diagnostic challenge. All gene sequences were determined be identical clearly different from strains, suggesting sequencing is reliable tool rapid genus-level spp. their differentiation closely organisms.
