The Brucella Antibody Rapid Test Kit is based on indirect immunochromatographic assay, to detect brucellosis antibody in serum, plasma, blood and milk samples from multi-species, which is rapid, accurate and easy-to-operate. The test time is 15min.
Background
Brucellosis, also known as undulant fever, Mediterranean fever is a zoonosis and the infection is almost invariably transmitted by direct or indirect contact with infected animals or their products. Expansion of animal industries and urbanization, and the lack of hygienic measures in animal husbandry and in food handling partly account for brucellosis remaining a public health hazard. Expansion of international travel which stimulates the taste for exotic dairy goods such as fresh cheeses which may be contaminated, and the importation of such foods into Brucella-free regions, also contribute to the ever-increasing concern over human brucellosis.
