    • Caracterización de la diversidad genética de Brucella ceti aisladas en la costa del Pacífico de Costa Rica, mediante secuenciación de nueve genes seleccionados 

      Piche-Ovares, María Marta (Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2013)
      Trece aislamientos bacterianos provenientes de delfines Stenella coeruleoalba encallados en la costa Pacífica de Costa Rica, fueron sometidos a caracterización bioquímica e identificados como Brucella ceti. Los mismos ...

    • Desarrollo y validación química y serológica de un ensayo inmunoenzimático ELISA para el diagnóstico de la brucelosis en odontocetos 

      Hernández Mora, María Gabriela (Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2006)
      Miembros del género Brucella, conocidos como “Brucella cetaceae” son patógenos de marsopas, delfines y ballenas. La experiencia clínica y el conocimiento de la patobiología de este microorganismo son limitados; sin ...

      Information regarding parasitic fauna of cetaceans from Costa Rica is provided for the first time. A total of 25 stranded dolphins and whales were examined between 2001 and 2009, including striped dolphin (Stenella ...

    • Pathological Studies and Postmortem Computed Tomography of Dolphins with Meningoencephalomyelitis and Osteoarthritis Caused by Brucella ceti 

      Granados-Zapata, Andrés; ROBLES MALAGAMBA, Maria Jose; González-Barrientos, Rocío; Chin-Wing Ko, Brian; BARQUERO-CALVO, ELIAS; Cordero-Chavaría, Minor; Suárez-Esquivel, Marcela; Guzman-Verri, Caterina; Palacios-Alfaro, Jose David; Tien-Sung, Connie; Moreno, Edgardo; Hernández-Mora, Gabriela (MDPI, 2022-05-09)
