Seroprevalence of Bordetella pertussis antibodies among a group of young adults

open access: yesJournal of Pre-Clinical and Clinical Research, 2021
Introduction and objective Bordetella pertussis is a Gram-negative rod which attacks the respiratory system and causes whooping cough disease. Despite the high percentage of childhood vaccination amongst the population an increasing number of pertussis

Airborne Transmission of Bordetella pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Infectious Diseases, 2012
Pertussis is a contagious, acute respiratory illness caused by the bacterial pathogen Bordetella pertussis. Although it is widely believed that transmission of B. pertussis occurs via aerosolized respiratory droplets, no controlled study has ever documented airborne transmission of pertussis.

Impact of Routine Respiratory Pathogen Panel Test on Outcome of Pediatric Oncology Patients With Febrile Neutropenia

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Infection is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in pediatric oncology patients, especially during neutropenia. While bacterial infections are traditionally considered the primary cause of febrile neutropenia, the growing use of respiratory pathogen panels (RPPs) for viral detection in children has not been extensively ...

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

open access: yesMicrobiology 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.

Lienotoxicity Of Bordetella Pertussis In Mice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 1971
Summary A highly toxic fraction causing dermonecrosis in guinea-pigs and a lethal effect in mice was obtained from Bordetella pertussis phase-1 organisms. Intravenous injection of this toxic fraction into mice produced a considerable reduction in spleen weight within 7 days. The histological findings indicate that B.
