Author: Zaitseva Elena Alexandrovna
Zoonotic infections are human
infectious diseases, the source of
which are infected animals.
2 groups:
1.Transmitted from domestic and other
synanthropic animals.
2.Transmitted from wild animals -
natural focal zoonoses.
Common features
1. The source of infection is an animal (sick
or carrier).
2. A sick person is not dangerous for other
people (except the plague).
3. Localized in natural focal areas
(geographical landscape, inhabited by
carriers and their hosts.
4. Pathogens affect various types of
animals.
5. Man - by chance.
6. Can be used as a biological weapon
MICROBIOLOGICAL
DIAGNOSTICS
in special laboratories of highly
dangerous infections
ELISA
PCR
Phagodiagnostics
Skin Allergy Tests
Brucellosis is a zooanthroponotic
infection characterized by fever,
lesion of the supporting-motor
apparatus , nervous and other
systems, a long course.
BRUCELLOSIS
Pathogens - Brucella
Family Brucellaceae
Genus Brucella
Kinds:
 B. melitensis
 B. abortus
 B. suis
Brucella
Gram (-) polymorphic (spherical, ovoid,
rod-shaped) (0.3 - 0.7 x 0.6 - 2.5 microns).
2) Motionless
3) Capsules do not form
4) does not form spores
5) Strict aerobes (5-10% CO2)
6) pH 6.6-7.4
7) 34-370С
Chemoorganotrophs
respiratory metabolism
thiamine, niacin and biotin are
necessary; calcium pantothenate
Restore nitrates (except Brucella ovis)
Catalazo (+)
Oxidazo (+)
citrate is not recycled
indole does not form
Negative reactions with methyl red and
Voges-Proskauer
On environments grow slowly (more than
a week).
For differentiation use:
 the ability of some biotypes to
produce hydrogen sulfide
sensitivity to the bacteriostatic action
of dyes - basic fuchsin and thionin
They are intracellular parasites of the
reticuloendothelial system.
Pathogenicity factors :
Proteins of the outer membrane -
determine the adhesive activity.
Hyaluronidase - destroys hyaluronic
acid.
Persists for a long time :
- in water and cheese - more than 2
months
- kefir - up to 11 days
- milk - 40 days
- in solid varieties of cheese - 1 year
- raw milk - 3 months
- salted meat - 1 month
- wool - 4 months
- oil - 5 months
At low temperatures - up to several
years
At high temperatures: 60 ° С - 30
minutes
100 ° С (boiling) - death is instant
UV and disinfecting solutions also
act immediately destructively
Transmission path :
- Alimentary (raw milk, dairy products
- cheese, cream, sour cream,
koumiss, meat)
- In contact with sick animals (sheep,
goats, pigs, cattle, etc.).
Sick people are not a source of
infection
Study material:

disadvantaged epidemic areas, are
given brucellosis live dry vaccine,
they are now using a chemical
brucellosis vaccine (CBV)
