Additional Information for Brucella Abortus Antigen
Brucella Abortus Antigen is a substance used in in vitro diagnostic tests for the detection of Brucella abortus antibodies in human or animal serum. Brucella abortus is a bacterium that causes brucellosis, a zoonotic disease that can be transmitted from animals to humans.
In veterinary medicine, Brucella abortus antigen is commonly used to screen livestock for brucellosis, as it can have significant economic and public health implications. The antigen is typically derived from the bacteria and is used in various diagnostic tests, such as the Rose Bengal test or the serum agglutination test.
These tests involve mixing the Brucella abortus antigen with the serum sample and observing for agglutination or clumping of the antigen-antibody complexes. The presence of agglutination indicates the presence of Brucella abortus antibodies in the serum, suggesting a current or past infection.
Brucella abortus antigen is classified as an in vitro diagnostic substance, which means it is intended for use in laboratory settings to aid in the diagnosis of diseases. It falls under the supply class of In Vitro Diagnostic Substances, Reagents, Test Kits, and Sets, which includes various substances and kits used for diagnostic purposes.
Overall, Brucella abortus antigen plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and surveillance of brucellosis in both human and veterinary medicine, helping to prevent the spread of this infectious disease.
