布鲁菌病是由布鲁氏菌引起的一种人畜共患病,世界动物卫生组织将其列为重要传染病,近些年发病率呈上升趋势。应用分子生物学技术进行布鲁氏菌种/型分类的研究具有重要意义。本文通过总结近年来布鲁氏菌种/型鉴定的研究进展,为今后判断预测疫情动态、研究流行特点以及制定合理有效的防治对策提供重要的理论依据。
Brucellosis is a kind of zoonosis which is caused by members of the genus Brucella. World Organization for Ani-mal Health lists it as an important infectious disease. In recent years, the morbidity of brucellosis has been rising. Application of molecular biology techniques to the research of Brucella species/types is of important significance. This article summarizes the re-search progress of identification of Brucella species/types, which provides evidence for judging and predicting epidemic dynamics, studing epidemic characteristics and making reasonable and effective prevention and control counter-measures.
