Detection of anti-brucella antibodies in Weddell seals (Leptonychotes weddellii) from cape Shirref, Antarctica
After the finding of anti-Brucellaantibodies in samples of Antarctic fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella), the serological study on Antarctic Pinniped was continued in order to determine the presence of anti-Brucellaantibodies in other species. Blood and extra vascular fluid samples were taken from 12 W...
