The seroepidemiology of Bordetella pertussis infection in Western Europe [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 2004
High titres of pertussis toxin (PT) antibody have been shown to be predictive of recent infection with Bordetella pertussis. The seroprevalence of standardized anti-PT antibody was determined in six Western European countries between 1994 and 1998 and related to historical surveillance and vaccine programme data.

The Pathology And Immunology Of Bordetella Pertussis Infection [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1972
Summary Strains of Bordetella pertussis, Bord. parapertussis and Bord. bronchiseptica adhered readily to live cultures of human fibroblasts. Sera from animals immunised against Bord. pertussis contain antibodies that specifically prevent the adhesion of Bord. pertussis to the cells. Anti-adhesion antibodies will not detach Bord.

Evaluation of PCR for Diagnosis of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis Infections [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT PCR, using primers PIp1 and PIp2, was evaluated for the detection of DNA from Bordetella pertussis in bacterial strains and in nasopharyngeal samples from patients with a cough lasting at least 7 days. The assay could detect DNA from 6 CFU of B.

A Small‐Scale Regional External Quality Assessment of Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests for Bordetella pertussis in China

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
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 ...

Prior exposure to B. pertussis shapes the mucosal antibody response to acellular pertussis booster vaccination

Nature Communications, 2022
Bordetella pertussis (Bp), the causative agent of pertussis, continues to circulate and it’s not well understood how (sub)clinical infections shape immune memory to Bp and vaccination.

Prosthetic-Joint-Associated Bordetella holmesii Infection [PDF]

Open Forum Infectious Diseases, 2015
Abstract Bordetella holmesii is a globally distributed pathogen that is increasingly recognized as a cause of both pertussis-like respiratory infections and invasive disease. In this study, we describe a case of an immunocompetent man who developed B holmesii infection of his femoral prosthesis—the fifth B holmesii orthopedic infection ...

Vaccination in pediatric transplantation—General recommendations. A position paper by the European Reference Network TransplantChild

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Infectious diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among pediatric transplant recipients, despite significant advances in transplantation management. Vaccination is the most effective strategy to prevent infections; however, its efficacy is hindered in solid organ transplant (SOT) and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)
