Response of Burkholderia cenocepacia H111 to Micro-Oxia

PLoS ONE, 2013
B. cenocepacia is an opportunistic human pathogen that is particularly problematic for patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF). In the CF lung bacteria grow to high densities within the viscous mucus that is limited in oxygen. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the dominant pathogen in CF patients, is known to grow and survive under oxygen-limited to ...

Metabolomic profiling of Burkholderia cenocepacia in synthetic cystic fibrosis sputum medium reveals nutrient environment-specific production of virulence factors

Scientific Reports, 2021
Infections by Burkholderia cenocepacia lead to life-threatening disease in immunocompromised individuals, including those living with cystic fibrosis (CF). While genetic variation in various B.

Bactericidal action of positive and negative ions in air [PDF]

, 2007
In recent years there has been renewed interest in the use of air ionisers to control of the spread of airborne infection. One characteristic of air ions which has been widely reported is their apparent biocidal action.

Burkholderia cenocepacia zinc metalloproteases influence resistance to antimicrobial peptides [PDF]

Microbiology, 2009
Burkholderia cenocepacia secretes two zinc-dependent metalloproteases, designated ZmpA and ZmpB. Previously, ZmpA and ZmpB have been shown to cleave several proteins important in host defence. In this study, the ability of ZmpA and ZmpB to digest and inactivate antimicrobial peptides involved in innate immunity was examined. ZmpB but

In vitro activity of ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin, meropenem, minocycline, tobramycin and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole against planktonic and sessile Burkholderia cepacia complex bacteria [PDF]

, 2009
Objectives: The goal of the present study was to obtain a comprehensive overview of the bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects of six commonly used antibiotics on planktonic as well as on sessile Burkholderia cepacia complex cells.

Exploring phage–host interactions in Burkholderia cepacia complex bacterium to reveal host factors and phage resistance genes using CRISPRi functional genomics and transcriptomics

Microbiology Spectrum
Complex interactions of bacteriophages with their bacterial hosts determine phage host range and infectivity. While phage defense systems and host factors have been identified in model bacteria, they remain challenging to predict in non-model bacteria ...
