Kattar MM et al. developed three real-time PCRs for diagnosis of human brucellosis at genus level with hybridization probes and primers from 16S-23S ITS, omp25 and omp31. Their results showed that real-time PCR with 16S-23S ITS primers and its probes was the most sensitive, indicating its potential for the diagnosis of human brucellosis in the clinical laboratory [41]. This evidence concerns the gene SYNJ2BP and brucellosis.
