PCR-RFLP based differentiation of Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei
Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei manifest a high similarity with regard to clinical syndromes, glanders and melioidosis. Phenotypic and genotypic characters are also highly similar. In an attempt to differentiate the two organisms, the molecular method was applied. This study aimed to identify the different DNA fragment in B.

Glanders: off to the races withBurkholderia mallei [PDF]
Burkholderia mallei, the etiologic agent of the disease known as glanders, is primarily a disease affecting horses and is transmitted to humans by direct contact with infected animals. The use of B. mallei as a biological weapon has been reported and currently, there is no vaccine available for either humans or animals.

Burkholderia pseudomallei: animal models of infection.
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.

A comprehensive glycosylation study of diversely protected and activated d‐idopyranosyl and 6‐deoxy‐d‐ido‐heptopyranosyl donors using intra‐ and intermolecular coupling strategies is reported. Intramolecular aglycon delivery afforded 1,2‐cis‐β‐idopyranosides, while intermolecular glycosylation yielded chromatographically separable α‐ and β‐linked ...

Cross-Species Comparison of the Burkholderia pseudomallei, Burkholderia thailandensis, and Burkholderia mallei Quorum-Sensing Regulons [PDF]
ABSTRACT Burkholderia pseudomallei , Burkholderia thailandensis , and Burkholderia mallei (the Bptm group) are close relatives with very different lifestyles: B.

A gold nanoparticle-linked glycoconjugate vaccine against Burkholderia mallei [PDF]
Burkholderia mallei are Gram-negative bacteria, responsible for the disease glanders. B. mallei has recently been classified as a Tier 1 agent owing to the fact that this bacterial species can be weaponised for aerosol release, has a high mortality rate and demonstrates multi-drug resistance.

Protection from Pneumonic Infection with Burkholderia Species by Inhalational Immunotherapy [PDF]
Burkholderia mallei and B. pseudomallei are important human pathogens and cause the diseases glanders and melioidosis, respectively. Both organisms are highly infectious when inhaled and are inherently resistant to many antimicrobials, thus making it ...
