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.

Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]
The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.

Biochemical and Immunological Comparison of Lipopolysaccharides from Bordetella Species [PDF]
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) isolated from Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica were analysed for their chemical composition, molecular heterogeneity and immunological properties. All the LPS preparations contained heptose, 3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid, glucosamine, uronic acid, phosphate and fatty acids.

Lipopolysaccharide bioengineering in Bordetella species
Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella bronchiseptica are pathogenic bacteria responsible for respiratory diseases in mammals, including humans. B. pertussis causes whooping cough in humans, primarily affecting young children. Vaccines against B. pertussis consisting of whole-cell inactivated bacteria were introduced globally in the 1940s, leading to a ...

Bacteremia caused by a novel Bordetella species, "B. hinzii" [PDF]
Bordetella spp. cause respiratory tract diseases in warm-blooded animals. Only Bordetella bronchiseptica has been reported to cause bacteremia in humans, and this rare infection usually occurs with pneumonia in immunocompromised patients. We describe "Bordetella hinzii" bacteremia in an AIDS patient without a respiratory illness.

Bordetella parapertussis Survives inside Human Macrophages in Lipid Raft-Enriched Phagosomes [PDF]
Bordetella parapertussis is a human pathogen that causes whooping cough. The increasing incidence of B. parapertussis has been attributed to the lack of cross protection induced by pertussis vaccines. It was previously shown that B. parapertussis is able

Pharmacokinetics of Cephalexin after Intravenous and Single and Multiple Intramuscular Administration to Rabbit [PDF]
Cephalexin is a first generation cephalosporin widely used in rabbits. Its spectrum includes Pasteurella multocida and Staphylococcus aureus. These bacteria, together with Bordetella bronchiseptica, are the main cause of respiratory infections.
