    • Brucella melitensis biovar 1 isolation in a captive wildlife population in the United Arab Emirates. First isolation in the scimitar-horned Oryx (Oryx dammah) 

      Lignereux, Louis; Chabert, Anne-Lise; Fretin, David; Godfroid, Jacques Xavier Leon; Saegerman, Claude (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-07)
      In 2013, Brucella melitensis biovar 1 was recovered from the stomach contents of a scimitar-horned Oryx - SHO (Oryx dammah) aborted foetus, and from the articular fluid of a sand gazelle (Gazella marica) in a captive wildlife collection near Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Other evidence of exposure to the pathogen was collected through serological testing (Rose Bengal test) and B. melitensis-specific ...

    • Detection and characterization of Brucella spp. in bovine milk in small-scale urban and peri-urban farming in Tajikistan 

      Lindahl-Rajala, Elisabeth; Hoffman, Tove; Fretin, David; Godfroid, Jacques; Sattorov, Nosirjon; Boqvist, Sofia; Lundkvist, Åke; Magnusson, Ulf (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-03-15)
      Brucellosis is one of the most common zoonoses globally, and Central Asia remains a Brucella hotspot. The World Health Organization classifies brucellosis as a neglected zoonotic disease that is rarely in the spotlight for research and mainly affects poor, marginalized people. Urban and peri-urban farming is a common practice in many low-income countries, and it increases the incomes of families ...

    • Identification and molecular characterization of Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis isolated from milk in cattle in Azerbaijan 

      Aliyev, Jeyhun; Alakbarova, Mahnur; Garayusifova, Aytan; Omarov, Asaf; Aliyeva, Saida; Fretin, David; Godfroid, Jacques Xavier Leon (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-15)
      Background - Azerbaijan currently ranks thirteenth in global incidence of human brucellosis, with an estimated annual incidence through 2000 at over 50 cases per million. Brucella melitensis has been isolated from patients and is thought to have been acquired through contact with small ruminants or as a foodborne infection. To reduce the burden of human brucellosis, the Azerbaijani government began ...

    • Imported human brucellosis in Belgium: Bio and molecular typing of bacterial isolates, 1996-2015 

      Mambres, Delphine Hanot; Boarbi, Samira; Michel, Patrick; Bouker, Nora; Escobar-Calle, Luisa; Desqueper, Damien; Fancello, Tiziano; Van Esbroeck, Marjan; Godfroid, Jacques; Fretin, David; Mori, Marcella (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-04-06)
      The aim of this study was to characterize by classical biotyping and Multi-Locus variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) Analysis (MLVA) all Brucella spp. derived from human cases in Belgium from 1996 to 2015. Final goals were to determine the species and biovar, to trace-back on genetic grounds the origin of each strain when patient history and risk factors were missing, and to survey for particular ...
