Characterization of fimbrial subunits from Bordetella species [PDF]
Using antisera raised against serotype 2 and 3 fimbrial subunits from Bordetella pertussis, serologically related polypeptides were detected in Bordetella bronchiseptica, Bordetella parapertussis and Bordetella avium strains. The two B. pertussis fimbrial subunits, and three of the serologically related B.

Serendipitous Discovery of an Immunoglobulin-Binding Autotransporter in Bordetella Species [PDF]
ABSTRACT We describe the serendipitous discovery of BatB, a classical-type Bordetella autotransporter (AT) protein with an ∼180-kDa passenger domain that remains noncovalently associated with the outer membrane. Like genes encoding all characterized protein virulence factors in Bordetella

Bordetella holmesii, an emerging pathogen, can be misidentified as Bordetella pertussis by routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In some reports, up to 29% of the patients diagnosed with pertussis have in fact B.

MRI findings in a dog with discospondylitis caused byBordetellaspecies
A case of discospondylitis in a dog secondary toBordetellaspecies, diagnosed early with the assistance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is reported. The history and clinical signs were suggestive of possible discospondylitis. MRI identified changes and allowed a presumptive diagnosis of discospondylitis, which was subsequently confirmed by ...

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)

Microbiological, Molecular Diagnosis and Antimicrobial Resistance of Bordetella bronchiseptica in the Equine Reproductive Tract in Brazil. [PDF]
First report of Bordetella bronchiseptica in the reproductive tract of Brazilian mares. Uterine lavage samples from mares with endometritis and infertility were positive by culture, PCR (237 bp flaA), sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. Isolates showed multidrug resistance, emphasizing the relevance of this pathogen in equine reproductive disorders ...

A Small-Scale Regional External Quality Assessment of Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests for Bordetella pertussis in China. [PDF]
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 ...

A comprehensive resource for Bordetella genomic epidemiology and biodiversity studies [PDF]
The genus Bordetella includes bacteria that are found in the environment and/or associated with humans and other animals. A few closely related species, including Bordetella pertussis, are human pathogens that cause diseases such as whooping cough. Here,

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.
