A Label-Based Polymer Nanoparticles Biosensor Combined with Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification for Rapid, Sensitive, and Highly Specific Identification of Brucella abortus.

ABSTRACT: Brucella abortus (B. abortus), an important zoonotic pathogen in Brucella spp., is the major causative agent of abortion in cattle (namely, bovine brucellosis). Currently, although the isolation and identification of the Brucella abortus were commonly accepted as the gold standard method, it cannot meet the requirements for early diagnostic strategies. Conventional PCR techniques and immunological tests can realize rapid detection of B. abortus, but the demands for PCR thermal cyclers and/or specific antibodies hinder their application in basic laboratories. Thus, rapid, sensitive, and specific diagnostic strategies are essential to prevent and control the spread of the bovine brucellosis. In this work, a novel detection method for the rapid identificatio
