From Lake Victoria to the Tap: Antibiotic Resistance and Pathogenic Contamination of Kisumu City Water Supply and Wastewater Network

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 547-559, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Waterborne diseases and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) pose mounting public health threats across sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in rapidly urbanising regions dependent on untreated or poorly treated surface waters. This study applied shotgun metagenomic sequencing to characterise microbial communities, virulence factors and antibiotic ...

Detection and Characterization of Clinical Bordetella trematum Isolates from Chronic Wounds

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Bordetella trematum is a relatively newly discovered and potentially frequently overlooked Bordetella species, mostly isolated from chronic wounds and predominantly in those of the lower extremities.

Morphology of cells and hemagglutinogens of Bordetella species: resolution of substructural units in fimbriae of Bordetella pertussis [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1983
The morphology of cells and the hemagglutinogens isolated from cultures of Bordetella pertussis, Bordetella bronchiseptica, and Bordetella parapertussis were studied by electron microscopy with the negative-staining technique. Cells of all three species had long, thin (3 nm thick), peritrichously arranged fimbriae on the cell surface.

Incidence of RSV‐ and Influenza‐Associated Hospitalizations With Community‐Acquired Pneumonia and Other Acute Respiratory Infection Among Adults in Japan in 2022–2024: APSG‐J2 Study

open access: yesInfluenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Quantifying the burden of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in adults is challenging compared to influenza, and data among older adults remain scarce in Japan. Country‐specific evidence is essential to support RSV vaccination policy.

Species interactions may help explain the erratic periodicity of whooping cough dynamics

open access: yesEpidemics, 2018
Incidence of whooping cough exhibits variable dynamics across time and space. The periodicity of this disease varies from annual to five years in different geographic regions in both developing and developed countries.

Long Lasting Antibodies From Convalescent Pertussis Patients Induce ROS Production and Bacterial Killing by Human Neutrophils

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Pertussis is a respiratory infection caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Bordetella pertussis. Despite high vaccination coverage this disease remains a public health concern worldwide.

Experimental pneumonia induced by a Bordetella parapertussis-like organism in the ovine and murine lung : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment (70%) of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Veterinary Pathology at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Thirty-four specific pathogen-free (SPF) Swiss mice were intranasally inoculated with a suspension containing about 3 x 10 7 colony-forming units (CFU)/ml of a B. parapertussis-like organism isolated from pneumonic ovine lung.

Torque Teno Virus Levels During Viral Respiratory Infections: The Interplay With Immune Dysregulation and Coagulopathy Biomarkers

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Torque teno virus (TTV) is a ubiquitous, nonenveloped DNA virus of the Anelloviridae family and a proposed surrogate marker of immune competence. Although nonpathogenic, its replication reflects host immune status and is associated with immune dysregulation during respiratory viral infections (RVIs).
