- Abstract
Brucella ovis is one of the main agents associated with epididymitis, which has great economic importance. The aim of this work was to verify if the passage of B. ovis in animals alters its pathogenicity. Four BALB/c mice were inoculated with 1x106 CFU/mL of ATCC25840 B. ovis before (P0, n=4) and after (P1, n=4) passage in BALB/c mice. Microgranulomas, necrosis and thrombosis were observed in mice infected. Inflammation was similar in both groups. The passage of the ATCC25840 B. ovis in mice increased very mildly its pathogenicity.
