An abortus is an obsolete term for the act of abortion, or an aborted foetus, particularly one aborted in the early stages of pregnancy.
I think they are a type of cell. Hope this helps.
Because of the cross-reaction of the LPS (Lipo poly Saccharide) of Brucella abortus. B. militensis and B. suis, only one antigen is used for serological diagnosis. Virtually all agglutination tests use the B. abortus antigen. There is no need to test with B. militensis.
Brucella abortus is a gram-negative bacterium found in cattle. It is a blood borne pathogen that causes premature abortion. It can be transferred from an animal to a human. It is possible for B. abortus to be spread from wild populations of elk and bison into domestic cattle herds. It can be prevented by vaccination of cattle.
''Brucella abortus'' is a bacteria, commonly associated with livestock such as cattle, that infects the reproductive tract. It causes abortions and stillbirths in females and reduced reproductive capacity in males. It is also a zoonotic disease, meaning that it can be passed from animals to humans and infect humans. In humans, brucellosis is commonly called undulant fever because it has a cycle of high fever - normal - high fever. In the United States ''B. abortus'' has been eradicated from the commercial cattle population, but it is still present in the bison of the Greater Yellowstone Area.

A package containing suspected Brucella abortus culture should be classified as a Category B infectious substance, as Brucella species are classified as zoonotic pathogens. Additionally, it should be handled according to biosafety level 2 (BSL-2) containment practices due to the potential risk of exposure. Proper labeling and documentation are essential to ensure safe transport and handling by the receiving laboratory.
