Bordetella holmesii : initial genomic analysis of an emerging opportunist [PDF]

Pathogens and Disease, 2013
Bordetella holmesii is an emerging opportunistic pathogen that causes respiratory disease in healthy individuals and invasive infections among patients lacking splenic function. We used 16S rRNA gene analysis to confirm B. holmesii as the cause of bacteremia in a child with sickle cell disease.

Bordetella holmesii bacteremia in sickle cell disease† [PDF]

Pediatric Blood and Cancer, 2008
AbstractPatients with sickle cell disease (SCD) have an increased risk of invasive bacterial infection because of hyposplenism. Bordetella holmesii is a recently described Gram‐negative coccobacillus with an apparent predilection for asplenic hosts. We report two patients with SCD and B. holmesii bacteremia. Fastidious growth in culture and a typically

Do not let perfect be the enemy of good: the current reality of Bordetella testing [PDF]

Microbiology Spectrum
Diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis is made by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect insertion sequence 481 (IS481). However, IS481 is found in both B. pertussis and Bordetella holmesii. In a recent study, Cole et al.

A Small-Scale Regional External Quality Assessment of Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests for Bordetella pertussis in China. [PDF]

J Clin Lab Anal
An external quality assessment (EQA) was conducted to evaluate the performance of nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) for Bordetella pertussis across 69 laboratories in Chongqing, China. Among 345 total reports, 341 (98.8%) were concordant with expected results, while four false negatives occurred in low‐concentration samples near the analytical ...
