The medical profession, patients, and third party payers of healthcare have greeted personalized medicine with a wave of enthusiasm worldwide.While genetics, pharmacology, neurology, pediatrics, psychiatry, oncology, biotechnology, infectious disease departments, and public health have received the majority of the well-deserved recognition, developments within chemistry have been responsible for many of the significant contributions to the possibilities envisioned in the future of medicine. This article demonstrates just how chemistry has unraveled the mysteries of what we now call genomic medicine.

This article explores why alongside sanitary legislation and public health works, Mexican physicians of the late nineteenth century attempted to transform the habits, customs and day to day activities of the population. It stresses the importance that the teaching of the principles of private and public hygiene had for the future of the country, how this education was to be carried out, and why some members of the medical profession believed that the hygienic education of mothers/women was an unavoidable requirement for the progress of the nation. Este artíículo analiza por quéé durante las déécadas finales del siglo diecinueve, el gremio méédico mexicano consideraba que era absolutamente indispensable que los habitantes del paíís, y en particular las mujeres de la capital, contaran con una cultura de la higiene. No sóólo era fundamental sanear y ordenar a la ciudad de Mééxico mediante obras de infraestructura sanitaria, y emitir leyes que regularan la salubridad de la nacióón, sino que era igualmente importante, y quizáás máás urgente, que los habitantes transformaran sus háábitos y costumbres de acuerdo con lo establecido por la higiene púública y privada. Asimismo, el artíículo examina los méétodos mediante los cuales se procuróó crear una cultura de la higiene, y por quéé la madre de familia fue considerada como una aliada imprescindible para la empresa de los higienistas.

The Future

The public health systems that existed up to now and the future ones — personalized — are described. The trend of the Sixth technological paradigm is the transition from government expenses on the healthcare system to compensation for citizens expenses on biomedical services. The public health system in the future will certainly be personalized, it will include management of the risks of health disorders and cost compensation from personal savings accounts — tools for personifying all aspects of human life. All biomedical information about an individual will be collected in the one-stop digital health service. New models of risk management within voluntary health insurance in the emerging market for personalized medicine are needed by insurers to know how to compensate for damage when an insurance event occurs. Risk calculation is possible when there is a forecast, analysis, prevention — all the direct risk management tools.

: Brucellosis caused by bacteria of the genus of Brucella remains a major zoonosis in the widely world, which is an infectious disease with a severe economic impact on animal husbandry and public health. The genus of Brucella includes ten species and the most prevalent is Brucella melitensis. The diagnosis of Brucella melitensis ruminant brucellosis is based on bacteriological and immunological tests. The use of vaccines and the false-positive serological reactions (FPSR) caused by other cross-reacting bacteria represent the immunological contexts. This complex context results in the development of the large number of diagnosis of Brucella melitensis brucellosis. The aim of this article is to briefly review the detection methods and compare the superiorities of different tests.
