title: Rapid detection of Brucella spp. in blood cultures by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
abstract: Brucellosis is a severe systemic disease in humans. We describe a new 16S rRNA-based fluorescence in situ hybridization assay that facilitates rapid and specific detection of all human pathogenic species of Brucella and that can be applied directly to positive blood cultures.
