A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Brucella melitensis
Brucella melitensis is a bacterial pathogen that causes brucellosis, a zoonotic disease affecting humans and animals such as goats and sheep. Symptoms include fever, joint pain, and fatigue, and if left undetected, it can lead to chronic illness. Detection of Brucella melitensis is crucial in the veterinary and human health sectors to prevent the spread of the disease and ensure timely treatment.
YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Brucella melitensis allows for rapid and accurate identification of the pathogen, enabling early intervention and control of brucellosis outbreaks. This timely detection can help mitigate the economic impact of the disease on livestock production and prevent its spread to humans, ultimately protecting public health.
