摘要
Objective:To design a duplex PCR for rapid and simultaneous detection of Brucella species, in human blood samples.Methods:Fifty-two peripheral bloods samples were collected from suspicious patients with brucellosis.Following DNA extraction,PCR assay were performed, using three primers that could simultaneously identify and differentiate three major species of pathogenic Brucella in humans and animals.Results:Of the 52 peripheral bloods samples tested, 25 sample(48%) showed positive reactions in PCR.Twelve samples were positive for Brucella abortus(B.abortus)(23%,13 for Brucella melUensis(B.melUensis)(25%) and 0 for Brucella ovis (6.ovis)(Ow.Conclusions:This work de=monstrates dial in case where specific primers were utilized,duplex PCR has proved to be a simple,fast,and relatively inexpensive method for simultaneous detection of important species of Brucella in clinical samples.
