InvasiveBordetella holmesiiinfections

Infectious Diseases, 2014
Bordetella holmesii is a rare cause of invasive human disease. The fastidious and unusual nature of this organism makes routine isolation and identification challenging. We report two cases of B. holmesii bacteremia that were rapidly identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) when standard ...

Bordetella holmesii Bacteraemia in an Individual on Haemodialysis

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2001
A case of haemodialysis-associated bacteraemia due to Bordetella holmesii is described. Commercially available identification kits failed to identify the isolate, which was speciated using 16s rRNA gene sequencing. B. holmesii is a rare cause of bacteraemia, endocarditis and pneumonia in the immunosuppressed and may also cause a pertussis-like illness.
