Abstract

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease of global importance for infecting humans .The early diagnosis of brucellosis infection plays a significant role in the treatment and rehabilitation .This paper reviews the different methods used to diagnose brucellosis ,particularly introduces the basic principles and applications of fluorescence polarisation assay as a diagnostic tool for brucellosis ,which could provide the reference for clinical diagnosis and epidemiological investigation on brucellosis .
