Bordetella parapertussis isolates not expressing pertactin circulating in France [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2011
Surprisingly, most Bordetella parapertussis isolates collected in France since 2007 do not express pertactin, owing to mutations in the structural gene encoding this protein. We used a 454 pyrosequencing strategy to study and compare the genetics of two B.

A Causal Relationship between Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis Infections

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1996
Bordetella parapertussis is isolated during the late stages of pertussis outbreaks and occasionally from patients infected with pertussis. The relationship between Bordetella pertussis and B. parapertussis was investigated in mice with monoinfections and mixed infections.

Moredun Bordetella Medium, an improved selective medium for isolation of Bordetella parapertussis

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1996
Bordetella parapertussis, previously thought to be an obligate human respiratory tract pathogen, has been isolated from sheep. Attempts to assess the prevalence of B. parapertussis in conventionally reared sheep by nasal swabbing proved futile with existing selective media because of extensive overgrowth with Mucor spp.

Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis

2010
Nasopharyngeal aspirates, nasal swabs or throat swabs may be processed for Bordetella pertussis/parapertussis detection. Sputum, endotracheal tube aspirates, and BAL fluids are also occasionally processed for B. pertussis/parapertussis detection.

Bordetella parapertussis infections.

Developments in biological standardization, 1997
The rate of isolation of Bordetella parapertussis among children with cough during the follow-up of different clinical efficacy studies has been evaluated. In the Italian trial, a comparison of clinical characteristics between B. pertussis and B. parapertussis infections showed lower frequencies and shorter duration of typical symptoms of whooping ...

Prevalence of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis in Infants Presenting to the Emergency Department with Bronchiolitis

Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2011
The clinical presentation of Bordetella pertussis can overlap with that of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and coinfection does occur, but management differs.The prevalence of B. pertussis is < 2% among Emergency Department (ED) patients with bronchiolitis.

Transient reemergence of Bordetella parapertussis in France in 2022

Journal of Medical Microbiology
Between March and October 2022, a peak of detection of Bordetella parapertussis by qPCR, real-time PCR was observed in France. Hypothesis/Gap Statement. Whether this peak was due to resurgence from previous circulating lineages or reintroduction into the country was unknown. Objective.

Analysis of proteins encoded by the ptx and ptl genes of Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis

Infection and Immunity, 1996
Bordetella pertussis is the only bacteria] species which is known to produce pertussis toxin (PT); however, both Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis contain regions homologous to the ptx genes of B. pertussis that encode the toxin subunits. After finding that several children with B. parapertussis infections exhibited modest antibody

Mixed outbreak of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis in an apartment house.

Developments in biological standardization, 1992
From September through November of 1985, a mixed outbreak of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis occurred in an apartment house in Ashikaga City, Japan. Bacteriological and serological investigations were conducted on seven families, comprising 13 adults and 19 children, living in the same apartment house and having social contacts.
