Biocide susceptibility of the Burkholderia cepacia complex [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2009
The Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) species are important opportunistic pathogens with intrinsic antibiotic resistance. They are also well known as contaminants of disinfectants, yet their biocide susceptibility has not been studied in detail. We investigated Bcc biocide susceptibility and correlated it to their taxonomy, antibiotic susceptibility ...
