Diagnostic evaluation of polymerase chain reaction discriminative for Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. bronchiseptica

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 1993
A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) procedure for simultaneous detection and identification of Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. bronchiseptica was developed and evaluated against culture in a study comprising nasopharyngeal aspirates and swabs from 166 patients with suspected pertussis, 54 of which were culture positive.

Transplacental antibodies. Part I: Maternal antibodies against B. pertussis and B. parapertussis.

Journal of hygiene, epidemiology, microbiology, and immunology, 1985
In 1981 a set of 256 of the umbilical cord blood collected from mothers between 15 and 34 years of age was serologically examined for specific antibodies against B. pertussis and B. parapertussis infections. The mothers were divided into four age groups, each with primipara and multipara subgroups, with the aim to assess age-related variations in ...

Immunological surveys of antibodies against B. pertussis and B. parapertussis in some African and Asian countries.

Journal of hygiene, epidemiology, microbiology, and immunology, 1980
Immunological surveys in African and Asian countries showed a different degree of herd immunity in the respective countries and the circulation of various types of B. pertussis. Antibodies against B. parapertussis, the second aertiological agent of whooping cough, were found in all countries in all age groups.
