Lack of Cross-protection against Bordetella holmesii after Pertussis Vaccination

open access: yesEmerging 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.

open access: yesPLoS 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.

BipA Is Associated with Preventing Autoagglutination and Promoting Biofilm Formation in Bordetella holmesii. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Bordetella holmesii causes both invasive and respiratory diseases in humans. Although the number of cases of pertussis-like respiratory illnesses due to B. holmesii infection has increased in the last decade worldwide, little is known about the virulence

Transmission of Bordetella holmesii during Pertussis Outbreak, Japan

open access: yesEmerging 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

open access: yesEmerging 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 real-time PCR for diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis infection

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2006
Background Nucleic acid amplification of the IS481 region by PCR is more sensitive than culture for detection and diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis but the assay has known cross-reactivity for Bordetella holmesii and its use as a routine diagnostic assay

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

open access: yesDiagnostic 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 ...

Cohort profile: A Prospective Household cohort study of Influenza, Respiratory syncytial virus and other respiratory pathogens community burden and Transmission dynamics in South Africa, 2016–2018

open access: yesInfluenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 15, Issue 6, Page 789-803, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Purpose The PHIRST study (Prospective Household cohort study of Influenza, Respiratory Syncytial virus, and other respiratory pathogens community burden and Transmission dynamics in South Africa) aimed to estimate the community burden of influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) including the incidence of infection, symptomatic fraction,

An ecological baseline for Laminaria hyperborea forests in western Ireland

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 3439-3454, September 2021., 2021
Abstract The biodiversity associated with subtidal Irish kelp forests dominated by Laminaria hyperborea has never been described. To enumerate species assemblages in these ecosystems, subtidal surveys were done throughout the calendar year to investigate species assemblages within kelp forests, composition of benthic communities, species colonizing ...
