Brucella is a genus of Gram-negativebacteria. They are small (0.5-0.7 × 0.6-1.5 µm), non-motile, encapsulated coccobacilli. Slow-growing, Brucella species require complex media for isolation. Bacteria that are Gram-negative are not stained dark blue or violet by Gram staining, in contrast to Gram-positive bacteria. ...

Brucella is the cause of brucellosis, a true zoonotic disease (i.e. human-to-human transmission has not been identified). It is transmitted by ingesting infected food, direct contact with an infected animal, or inhalation of aerosols. Minimum infectious exposure is between 10 - 100 organisms. Brucellosis primarily occurs through occupational exposure (e.g. exposure to cattle, sheep, pigs), but also by consumption of unpasteurised milk products. Zoonosis (pronounced ) is any infectious disease that may be transmitted from other animals, both wild and domestic, to humans or from humans to animals (the latter is sometimes called reverse zoonosis). ...
