Differences in the effects of Bordetella pertussis and respiratory syncytial virus infection on the composition of nasopharyngeal flora in neonates

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
IntroductionBordetella pertussis and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are important pathogens causing cough in neonates. Few studies have investigated the differences in the effects of these two specific infections on respiratory flora.

Emerging and Re-Emerging Zoonoses of Dogs and Cats. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Since the middle of the 20th century, pets are more frequently considered as "family members" within households. However, cats and dogs still can be a source of human infection by various zoonotic pathogens.

Exploring the Potential and Evaluating Hydrocarbon Degradation by Novel Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas Isolates From a Pristine Environment

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
The Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas isolates were tested for bioremediation applications. Genomic analyses revealed the potential to degrade complex organic compounds, potential virulence factors and resistance genes. Physiological assays showed a wide range of adaptation to abiotic factors and sensitivity to different groups of antibiotics ...

Domestic Animals as Carriers ofBordetellaSpecies in Senegal

open access: yesVector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2006
Despite intense efforts to maintain a high level of vaccine coverage against human whooping cough, rural senegalese areas are still endemic for Bordetella pertussis. One explanation being the potential existence of animal reservoirs, the objective of this work was to precise the carriage by domestic animals of bacteria belonging to the genus Bordetella

Host Oxidative Response Capacity Determines Longevity Outcomes of Microbial Interventions

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2026.
Genetic variation determines whether microbial interactions extend or shorten host lifespan via redox homeostasis. This discovery highlights the critical role of host genetics in shaping microbiota‐driven aging, offering a new framework for precision microbiome interventions tailored to individual needs for promoting longevity.

Evaluation of Amplification Targets for the Specific Detection of Bordetella pertussis Using Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2014
BACKGROUND: Bordetella pertussis infections continue to be a major public health challenge in Canada. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays to detect B pertussis are typically based on the multicopy insertion sequence IS481, which offers

Acute hepatitis and haemolysis associated with doxycycline and rifampin administration in two weanling foals

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page e70-e77, February 2026.
Summary Two foals were being treated with a combination of oral doxycycline and rifampin for presumed Rhodococcus equi infections. After 3–4 weeks of antimicrobial administration, both foals presented with icterus and nonspecific clinical signs, including lethargy and inappetence.

Genetic relatedness and antimicrobial susceptibility of porcine respiratory tract pathogens Streptococcus suis, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Streptococcus suis is a Gram-positive bacterium and a commensal colonizing the porcine respiratory tract. However, some serotypes have a higher virulence and can cause pneumonia, meningitis, septicaemia, arthritis, endocarditis, polyserositis or abortion

Discriminative PCR of Bordetella pertussis from closely related Bordetella species using 16S rDNA Gene

open access: yesInfection and Chemotherapy, 2008
Background : Polymerase-chain reaction (PCR) detection is useful to diagnosis of pertussis at initial stage because the growth rate of Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) is relatively slow. Currently, the primer set for the insertion sequence IS481 (BP primer) is used widely for PCR detection of B. pertussis. However, the cross-reactivity of BP primer
