Lack of Cross-protection against Bordetella holmesii after Pertussis Vaccination

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
Bordetella holmesii, a species closely related to B. pertussis, has been reported sporadically as a cause of whooping cough–like symptoms. To investigate whether B. pertussis–induced immunity is protective against infection with B. holmesii, we conducted

Diagnosis of whooping cough in Switzerland: differentiating Bordetella pertussis from Bordetella holmesii by polymerase chain reaction.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Bordetella holmesii, an emerging pathogen, can be misidentified as Bordetella pertussis by routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In some reports, up to 29% of the patients diagnosed with pertussis have in fact B.

Transmission of Bordetella holmesii during Pertussis Outbreak, Japan

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
We describe the epidemiology of a pertussis outbreak in Japan in 2010–2011 and Bordetella holmesii transmission. Six patients were infected; 4 patients were students and a teacher at the same junior high school.

Bordetella holmesii-Like Organisms Isolated from Massachusetts Patients with Pertussis-Like Symptoms

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999
We isolated Bordetella holmesii, generally associated with septicemia in patients with underlying conditions, from nasopharyngeal specimens of otherwise healthy young persons with a cough. The proportion of B.

Evaluation of the ELITe InGenius and Bordetella ELITe MGB Kit for the detection and identification of B. pertussis, B. parapertussis and B. holmesii

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease
Bordetella pertussis is the causative pathogen of whooping cough or pertussis, a contagious respiratory disease. Aside from serodiagnosis, laboratory confirmation of pertussis is done through PCR, as B. pertussis is difficult to culture. The ELITe InGenius instrument (ELITechGroup, France) with accompanying Bordetella ELITe MGB Kit was evaluated ...

Identification of Bordetella pertussis in a Critically Ill Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Patient by Direct Genotypical Analysis of Gram-Stained Material and Discrimination from B. holmesii by Using a Unique recA Gene Restriction Enzyme Site [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2004
ABSTRACT Bordetella pertussis was diagnosed in a human immunodeficiency virus-infected patient by a newly developed method in which bacterial DNA is amplified directly from sputum Gram-stained slides. The validation of the method is described along with an additional new PCR-based assay that can distinguish between

Standard Operating Procedure for Real-time PCR Detection and Identification of Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. holmesii using AB7500 v1 [PDF]

, 2017
The appropriate use of clinically accurate diagnostic tests is essential for the detection of pertussis, a poorly controlled vaccine-preventable disease. The purpose of this study was to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of different diagnostic criteria including culture, multi-target polymerase chain reaction (PCR), anti-pertussis toxin IgG ...

Identification and regulation of expression of a gene encoding a filamentous hemagglutinin-related protein in Bordetella holmesii

BMC Microbiology, 2007
Background Bordetella holmesii is a human pathogen closely related to B. pertussis, the etiological agent of whooping cough. It is able to cause disease in immunocompromised patients, but also whooping cough-like symptoms in otherwise healthy individuals.
