Multilocus sequence typing scheme that provides both species and strain differentiation for the Burkholderia cepacia complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A single multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme was developed for precise characterization of the opportunistic pathogens of Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), a group composed of at least nine closely related species.

Taxonomy and Identification of the Burkholderia cepacia Complex [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

Diversity of the parB and repA genes of the Burkholderia cepacia complex and their utility for rapid identification of Burkholderia cenocepacia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Burkholderia cenocepacia is the most prominent species of the B. cepacia complex (Bcc), a group of nine closely related and difficult to identify bacteria that cause serious infections in patients with cystic fibrosis.

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

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 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 ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Exploring the metabolic network of the epidemic pathogen Burkholderia cenocepacia J2315 via genome-scale reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: Burkholderia cenocepacia is a threatening nosocomial epidemic pathogen in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) or a compromised immune system. Its high level of antibiotic resistance is an increasing concern in treatments against its infection.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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).
