Brucella intermedia

Brucella intermedia is a bacterium from the genus of Brucella.

[6] It causes diseases in humans only rarely, with single case reports of cholangitis following liver transplantation,[7] bacteremia in a patient with bladder cancer,[8] a pelvic abscess after abdominal surgery,[9][10] dyspepsia,[11] endophthalmitis in the presence of a foreign body,[12] pneumonia,[13] and endocarditis.

[14] B. intermedia, B. anthropi, and Brucella melitensis can be distinguished on the basis of a multi-primer polymerase chain reaction that targets the recA gene.

[15] A genome of B. intermedia was sequenced and submitted to GenBank in 2013.
