Economic losses resulting from the impact of brucellosis on animals have
increased, which is reflected in turn on humans. Brucella is pathogenic bacteria
shared by humans and pet animals. They still pose a significant risk that
threatens health an
d economics in Syria. Many efforts have focused to prevent
the spread of brucellosis disease, by resorting to the use of vaccines prepared
from Brucella strains, where now the target is preparation of vaccine
components proteins of Brucella can be used as a vaccine or an improved
traditional vaccine.
Nanobody technology is considered as a promising molecular biology
technique performed by means of the genetic engineering of special type of
antibodies, existing exclusively in Camelidea. It enables the obtaining of small
proteins, referred to as
Nanobodies, which are characterized by high stability
and solubility, are able to link to their specific antigens. After production, the
Nanobody genes are cloned within plasmids of protein expression in bacteria,
allowing their stable and continuous production for research and applied
purposes.
