Major Aspects of Burkholderia gladioli and Burkholderia cepacia Infections in Children

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2020
Background: Burkholderia cepacia complex is an aerobic, non–spore-forming, catalase-positive, nonfermentative, Gram-negative bacterium common in environment. It is a serious pathogen especially for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).

Burkholderia pseudomallei: animal models of infection

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2008
A range of animal models of Burkholderia pseudomallei infection have been reported, and the host species differ widely both in their susceptibility to infection and in the pathogenesis of disease. In mice, and depending on the route of infection, dose, and mouse strain, the disease can range from a chronic, and in some cases, an apparently latent ...

Burkholderia cepacia infection and lung transplantation

Seminars in Respiratory Infections, 2002
Burkholderia cepacia has emerged as an important pathogen in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) undergoing lung transplantation. Taxonomic analyses have divided B. cepacia into 7 closely related species called genomovars. The prevalence of B. cepacia infection ranges from 2% to 13% in CF patients with genomovar III being most prevalent.

Experimental Burkholderia pseudomallei infection of pigs

Journal of Veterinary Medicine, Series B, 2004
SummaryExperimental infection with Burkholderia pseudomallei was successfully produced after a single intravenous challenge of 2‐month‐old pigs with a dose of 5.0 × 109 bacterial cells. Clinical, paraclinical and morphological findings of the infectious process and post‐infectious immunity were examined up to day 30 post infection (p.i.).

Protective cellular responses to Burkholderia mallei infection

Microbes and Infection, 2010
Burkholderia mallei is a Gram-negative bacillus causing the disease glanders in humans. During intraperitoneal infection, BALB/c mice develop a chronic disease characterised by abscess formation where mice normally die up to 70 days post-infection. Although cytokine responses have been investigated, cellular immune responses to B. mallei infection have

Pacemaker Infection Secondary to Burkholderia Pseudomallei

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2007
Infection is a relatively rare but devastating complication of intracardiac device implantation. Burkholderia pseudomallei is the organism which causes melioidosis, an endemic and lethal infection in the tropics. We describe a case of pacemaker infection secondary to Burkholderia pseudomallei, which was treated by explantation of the device and ...
