Natural History and Ecology of Interactions Between Bordetella Species and Amoeba [PDF]
A variety of bacteria have evolved the ability to interact with environmental phagocytic predators such as amoebae, which may have facilitated their subsequent interactions with phagocytes in animal hosts.

Comparison of Bordetella species identification among differing rt-PCR assays in the United States [PDF]
In the United States, the general laboratory method for diagnosing pertussis, caused by Bordetella pertussis, is real-time PCR (rt-PCR) targeting insertion sequence 481 (IS481).

Bordetella Adenylate Cyclase-Hemolysin Toxins
Adenylate cyclase-hemolysin toxin is secreted and produced by three classical species of the genus Bordetella: Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica.

Isolation of Bordetella species from unusual infection sites [PDF]
Introduction: Bordetella hinzii has been isolated mainly from respiratory specimens and from blood of immunocompromised patients, and Bordetella trematum from ear infections or leg, arm and ankle wounds and from diabetic foot ulcers. Bordetella holmesii is instead associated with bactaeremia in

The classical Bordetella species and MALDI-TOF technology: a brief experience
The aim of this work was to evaluate and optimize the identification of Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis and Bordetella bronchiseptica (usually known as the classical Bordetella species) using Bruker Biotyper matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).A set of 106 previously characterized ...

Agglutination ofBordetellaspecies by lectins [PDF]
Phase I cells of Bordetella pertussis but not those of B. parapertussis, B. bronchiseptica or B. avium were agglutinated by Limulus polyphemus lectin. Most strains of B. pertussis but not those of the other species were also agglutinated by Helix pomatia lectin. In precipitation reactions between lectins and purified Bordetella lipopolysaccharide (LPS)

Genome-based prediction of cross-protective, HLA-DR-presented epitopes as putative vaccine antigens for multiple Bordetella species [PDF]
Acellular pertussis vaccines protect against severe pertussis, but vaccine-induced immunity wanes over time. Prior animal studies showed that T-cell responses are integral to long-lasting immunity.

Lonidamine, a Novel Modulator for the BvgAS System of Bordetella Species. [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe Gram‐negative bacteria Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. bronchiseptica cause respiratory diseases in various mammals. They share the BvgAS two‐component system, which regulates the phenotypic conversion between the virulent Bvg+ and avirulent Bvg– phases.

Deoxyribonucleotide Sequence Relationships Among Bordetella Species [PDF]
Deoxyribonucleotide sequence relationships among currently recognized Bordetella species (Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella parapertussis, and Bordetella bronchiseptica) were examined by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hybridization involving the hydroxyapatite batch procedures of Brenner and co-workers.

Comparative study of hemolytic activity of Bordetella species
Background and objectives: Bordetella species colonize the respiratory tract of mammals and thereby cause the whooping cough. Most of the species produce adenylate cyclase - a toxin ( hemolysin ) responsible for increasing intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP)
