Burkholderia cepacia Complex Taxon K: Where to Split? [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The objective of the present study was to provide an updated classification for Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) taxon K isolates. A representative set of 39 taxon K isolates were analyzed through multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and phylogenomic ...

A Rare Case of Burkholderia cepacia Complex Septic Arthritis [PDF]

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, 2018
Bacteria of the Burkholderia cepacia complex have rarely been reported to cause septic arthritis. Cases have been reported in patients who were immunocompromised, at extremes of age or who had history of steroid injection or penetrating trauma. A 67-year-

Biocide susceptibility of the Burkholderia cepacia complex [PDF]

Journal 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 ...

Genomic complexity and plasticity ofBurkholderia cepacia [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1996
Burkholderia cepacia has attracted attention because of its extraordinary degradative abilities and its potential as a pathogen for plants and for humans. This bacterium was formerly considered to belong to the genus Pseudomonas in the gamma-subclass of the Proteobacteria, but recently has been assigned to the beta-subclass is based on rrn gene ...

Taxonomy and Identification of the Burkholderia cepacia Complex [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2001
At the beginning of this review it is essential to clarify the terminology that will be used to refer to the members of the Burkholderia cepacia complex and their relatives. The name B. cepacia will relate only to B. cepacia genomovar I. Strains resembling B.

Is Hydrogen Cyanide a Marker of Burkholderia cepacia Complex? [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Biofilm cultures of Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) infection have been found to generate the nonvolatile cyanide ion. We investigated if gaseous hydrogen cyanide (HCN) was a marker of BCC infection.

Evaluation of Three Culture Media for Isolation of Burkholderia cepacia Complex from Respiratory Samples of Patients with Cystic Fibrosis

Microorganisms, 2021
Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) is a significant pathogen causing respiratory disease in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). Diagnosis is typically achieved by isolation of BCC on selective culture media following culture of sputum or other ...

Influence of Neutrophil Defects on Burkholderia cepacia Complex Pathogenesis [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011
The Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is a group of Gram-negative bacteria that are ubiquitous in the environment and have emerged as opportunistic pathogens in immunocompromised patients. The primary patient populations infected with Bcc include individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF), as well as those with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD).
