Polyphasic characterisation of Burkholderia cepaciacomplex species isolated from children with cystic fibrosis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2016
Cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) pulmonary infections have high morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to compare different methods for identification of Bcc species isolated from paediatric CF patients ...

Versatility of the Burkholderia cepacia complex for the biosynthesis of exopolysaccharides: a comparative structural investigation.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The Burkholderia cepacia Complex assembles at least eighteen closely related species that are ubiquitous in nature. Some isolates show beneficial potential for biocontrol, bioremediation and plant growth promotion.

Rapid identification of Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei by intact cell Matrix-assisted Laser Desorption/Ionisation mass spectrometric typing [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Burkholderia (B.) pseudomallei and B. mallei are genetically closely related species. B. pseudomallei causes melioidosis in humans and animals, whereas B. mallei is the causative agent of glanders in equines and rarely also in humans.

Necrotizing pneumonia and septic shock caused by Burkholderia cepacia in an immunocompetent adult

IDCases
We report the case of an immunocompetent adult presenting with acute febrile illness during a dengue outbreak in the Peruvian Amazon. The patient developed rapidly progressive respiratory compromise and hemodynamic instability, requiring admission to the

Quorum sensing and DNA methylation play active roles in clinical Burkholderia phase variation

Journal of Bacteriology
Phenotypic diversity in bacteria often results from adaptation to changing environmental conditions, exemplified by variable colony morphotypes. In Burkholderia pseudomallei, discrete genomic alterations and modulation of gene expression facilitate ...

Burkholderia cepacia Complex as Human Pathogens.

Journal of nematology, 2011
Although sporadic human infection due to Burkholderia cepacia has been reported for many years, it has been only during the past few decades that species within the B. cepacia complex have emerged as significant opportunistic human pathogens. Individuals with cystic fibrosis, the most common inherited genetic disease in Caucasian populations, or ...
