Conversion of Bordetella pertussis to Bordetella parapertussis [PDF]

Journal of Hygiene, 1978
SUMMARYThe epidemiological and drug susceptibility data on whooping cough suggested a possibility that Bordetella pertussis converts in some way to Bordetella parapertussis. To prove this, B. pertussis strain 75 was treated with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and a mutant resistant to staphcillin V and eight mutants resistant to trimethoprim were

Pneumonia caused by Bordetella hinzii: A case report

Infectious Medicine
As well known, the species of Bordetella, such as Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are prevalent respiratory tract pathogens. Bordetella hinzii, another species of Bordetella genus, Bordetella hinzii could cause meningitis, bacteremia ...

Extracellular DNA is essential for maintaining Bordetella biofilm integrity on abiotic surfaces and in the upper respiratory tract of mice.

PLoS ONE, 2011
Bacteria form complex and highly elaborate surface adherent communities known as biofilms which are held together by a self-produced extracellular matrix.

Draft Genome Sequences of Bordetella hinzii and Bordetella trematum [PDF]

Genome Announcements, 2013
ABSTRACT Bordetella hinzii colonizes the respiratory tracts of poultry but can also infect immunocompromised humans. Bordetella trematum , however, only infects humans, causing ear and wound infections. Here, we present the first draft genome sequences of strains B. hinzii

Bordetella bronchiseptica pneumonia in a man with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2009
Introduction Bordetella bronchiseptica can be a cause of virulent pneumonia in humans with impaired immune systems. Few cases have been reported in the medical literature where Bordetella bronchiseptica has been the only pathogen isolated during a course

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.

A wolf in sheep's clothing: Dogs confer an unrecognized risk for their immunocompromised master

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2022
Bordetella bronchiseptica is a pleomorphic gram-negative coccobacillus that commonly causes respiratory tract infections in canines, felines, and swine. Human infections are rare.

Genome-based prediction of cross-protective, HLA-DR-presented epitopes as putative vaccine antigens for multiple Bordetella species

Microbiology Spectrum
Acellular pertussis vaccines protect against severe pertussis, but vaccine-induced immunity wanes over time. Prior animal studies showed that T-cell responses are integral to long-lasting immunity.

Bordetella bronchiseptica bronchitis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1987
The clinical course of a patient with bronchitis caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica is described. The organism was recovered on one occasion from a protected catheter brush specimen obtained at bronchoscopy and on two occasions from expectorated sputum specimens. The infection was eradicated with antimicrobial therapy.
