Biological Degradation of Phthalates: From Bioremediation to Plastic Waste Valorization
Phthalic acid isomers play a key role in the plastics industry, but pose significant environmental and health concerns. This review explores the microbial biodegradation of phthalates and their esters, focusing on bacterial enzymes, catabolic pathways, and cellular uptake mechanisms of phthalates.

Drosophila melanogaster as a Model Host for the Burkholderia cepacia Complex
Colonization with bacterial species from the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is associated with fast health decline among individuals with cystic fibrosis. In order to investigate the virulence of the Bcc, several alternative infection models have been developed.

A rapid, cost‐effective dual‐detection strategy for Klebsiella pneumoniae K2 was developed by combining a label‐free AuNP colorimetric assay (LOD: 1.56 ng/μL, 60 min) with duplex PCR targeting K2A and orf10 genes (LOD: 1 pg/μL). This approach enables rapid screening with accurate genetic validation for point‐of‐care diagnostics in resource‐limited ...

Chronic pulmonary infection is one of the hallmarks of lung disease in cystic fibrosis. Infections dominated by organisms of the Burkholderia cepacia complex, a group of at least 17 closely-related species of gram-negative bacteria, are particularly ...

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by involvement of all exocrine glands, vital organs and systems. CFTR protein dysfunction leads to chronic infection and subsequent uncontrolled inflammation.

Review: Chemical and biological features of Burkholderia cepacia complex lipopolysaccharides
The Burkholderia cepacia complex comprises 10 closely related Gram-negative organisms all of which appear capable of causing disease in humans. These organisms appear of particular relevance to patients with cystic fibrosis. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an important virulence determinant in Gram-negative pathogens. In this review, we highlight important

Proposal to accommodate Burkholderia cepacia genomovar VI as Burkholderia dolosa sp nov
Phenotypic and genotypic studies revealed new tools for differentiating Burkholderia cepacia genomovar VI from Burkholderia multivorans and other B. cepacia-complex species. Hence, the name Burkholderia dolosa sp. nov. is proposed, with LMG 18943T (=CCUG
