Burkholderia fungorum Septicemia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
We report the first case of community-acquired bacteremia with Burkholderia fungorum, a newly described member of the Burkholderia cepacia complex. A 9-year-old girl sought treatment with septic arthritis in her right knee and ankle with soft tissue ...

Induced Burkholderia prophages detected from the hemoculture: a biomarker for Burkholderia pseudomallei infection

Frontiers in Microbiology
Bacteriophages (phages), viruses that infect bacteria, are found in abundance not only in the environment but also in the human body. The use of phages for the diagnosis of melioidosis, a tropical infectious disease caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei, is emerging as a promising novel approach, but our understanding of conditions under which ...

Polyesterase activity and thermostability of carboxylesterases from Thermoleophilum album YS‐3

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 15, Page 4724-4743, August 2026.
Three novel α/β‐hydrolases from thermophilic bacterium Thermoleophilum album display carboxylesterase and polyesterase activity. These enzymes hydrolyse PET, PLA and PCL both at high and moderate temperatures. TA21 shows superior activity, efficiently converting MHET to terephthalic acid. Structural features underlying substrate binding highlight their

Characterization of integrons in Burkholderia cepacia clinical isolates

Microbiologia Medica, 2010
Burkholderia cepacia is an opportunistic pathogen able to colonize the airways of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients, frequently developing chronic infections. In 20% of cases these infections cause severe and poorly controlled pathological situations because

Burkholderia Sepsis in Children as a Hospital-Acquired Infection

Yonsei Medical Journal, 2016
Hospital-acquired Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia) infection are not commonly recorded in patients without underlying lung disease, such as cystic fibrosis and chronic granulomatous disease. However, in 2014, B. cepacia appeared more frequently in pediatric blood samples than in any other year.

To Move or Not to Move: When and How Bacteria Suppress Flagellar Motility

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 126, Issue 2, Page 173-189, August 2026.
Motility cessation in bacteria is a key regulatory strategy that provides multiple survival advantages including enhanced community cooperation, niche adaptation and evasion of host immune responses. This process is controlled by associated mechanisms such as post‐translational modifications and second messenger signalling that stabilise non‐motile ...

Korat‐Scrub Typhus Score: A Clinical Tool for Predicting Scrub Typhus in Patients With Acute Undifferentiated Febrile Illness

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 8, Page 1066-1072, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Scrub typhus is a major cause of acute undifferentiated febrile illness (AUFI) in the Asia–Pacific region. Nonspecific presentation, limited diagnostic accuracy and delayed treatment increase morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to develop a simple clinical score for early diagnosis in adults with AUFI. Methods A cross‐sectional

Human Infection with Burkholderia thailandensis, China, 2013

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
Burkholderia thailandensis infection in humans is uncommon. We describe a case of B. thailandensis infection in a person in China, a location heretofore unknown for B. thailandensis. We identified the specific virulence factors of B. thailandensis, which may indicate a transition to a new virulent form.

Detection of biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance genes in multidrug-resistant Burkholderia sp. isolated from agricultural soil

Bulletin of the National Research Centre
Background Burkholderia are environmental bacteria mostly distributed in soil and water. Species of these bacteria can cause melioidosis in humans and animals, as well as necrotizing pneumonia in patients with cystic fibrosis.
