Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis: two immunologically distinct species [PDF]
Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are closely related species. Both are responsible for outbreaks of whooping cough in humans and produce similar virulence factors, with the exception of pertussis toxin, specific to B. pertussis. Current pertussis whole-cell vaccine will soon be replaced by acellular vaccines containing major adhesins ...

Between January 2013 and December 2014, we conducted laboratory-based surveillance of pertussis using multitarget real-time PCR, which discriminates among Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, Bordetella holmesii and Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

Host Specificity of Ovine Bordetella parapertussis and the Role of Complement. [PDF]
The classical bordetellae are comprised of three subspecies that differ from broad to very limited host specificity. Although several lineages appear to have specialized to particular host species, most retain the ability to colonize and grow in mice, providing a powerful common experimental model to study their differences.

Aktuelle Epidemiologie von Bordetella parapertussis-Infektionen in Deutschland [PDF]
Keuchhusten wird in den meisten Fällen durch Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) verursacht, seltener auch durch B. parapertussis. Seit 2013 besteht gemäß § 6 Infektionsschutzgesetz (IfSG) eine bundesweite Meldepflicht für den Krankheitsverdacht, die ...

The Bordetella genus is divided into two groups: classical and non-classical. Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis are known as classical bordetellae, a group of important human pathogens causing whooping cough or ...

Shared primer PCR combined with hybridisation for the detection of Bordetella Pertussis and B. Parapertussis [PDF]
A method of detecting Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis infection is provided. The method includes amplification of a Bordetella porin gene fragment from a sample such as a human nasopharyngeal aspirate using a Bordetella-specific primer,

Molecular evolution of the two-component system BvgAS involved in virulence regulation in Bordetella. [PDF]
The whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis is closely related to Bordetella bronchiseptica, which is responsible for chronic respiratory infections in various mammals and is occasionally found in humans, and to Bordetella parapertussis, one lineage of
