Abstract
In the current study, we have diagnosed Brucellosis infection in two patients on the basis of the results from fluorescence emission spectra, excitation spectra and stoke shift spectra (SSS) of blood serum from the patients. A good discrimination is found in the spectral features of the Brucellosis infected patients as compared to normal blood serum samples. The reported preliminary study clearly demonstrates the proof of concept from samples of Brucellosis acquired from the known cases of the patients of Brucellosis. Both the Brucellosis patients can be diagnosed on the basis of the relative intensity of fluorescence biomarkers like tryptophan, tyrosine, collagen elastin, flavin found in their Serum samples..
