Community acquired Burkholderia cepacia sepsis in a patient with megaloblastic anemia: a case report and review of literature [PDF]
Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is known to cause respiratory tract infections among patients with cystic fibrosis. Burkholderia infection is also seen in patients admitted in ICUs who are immunocompromised and results in lower respiratory tract ...

Bacterial drug tolerance under clinical conditions is governed by anaerobic adaptation but not anaerobic respiration [PDF]
Non-inherited antibiotic resistance is a phenomenon whereby a subpopulation of genetically identical bacteria displays phenotypic tolerance to antibiotics. We show that, compared to E. coli, the clinically relevant genus Burkholderia displays much higher

Genome-wide saturation mutagenesis of Burkholderia pseudomallei K96243 predicts essential genes and novel targets for antimicrobial development. [PDF]
UNLABELLED: Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, an often fatal infectious disease for which there is no vaccine. B. pseudomallei is listed as a tier 1 select agent, and as current therapeutic options are limited due to its ...

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

Synovial Tissue Infection withBurkholderia fungorum [PDF]
To the Editor: The genus Burkholderia, first proposed in 1992, has now expanded to consist of many species (1). Bacteria of this genus exhibit extensive ubiquity; they have been isolated from human, animal, and environmental sources (1,2). Although rare, Burkholderia fungorum has been implicated in several human infections (2–4).

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