Inactivation of Burkholderia mallei in Equine Serum for Laboratory Use [PDF]
The bacterium Burkholderia mallei is the cause of glanders. In the United Kingdom, the disease was eradicated from horses and other equids in 1928 and is now rarely reported throughout the world. Freedom from disease is maintained in part by serological screening prior to international travel.

Involvement of the efflux pumps in chloramphenicol selected strains of Burkholderia thailandensis: proteomic and mechanistic evidence. [PDF]
Burkholderia is a bacterial genus comprising several pathogenic species, including two species highly pathogenic for humans, B. pseudomallei and B. mallei. B. thailandensis is a weakly pathogenic species closely related to both B.

ABSTRACT Timely identification of highly pathogenic bacteria is crucial for efficient mitigation of the connected harmful health effects. Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (MALDI‐TOF MS) of intact cells enables fast identification of the microorganisms based on their mass spectrometry protein fingerprint ...

Antibody detection of Burkholderia pseudommallei and Burkholderia mallei [PDF]
Monoclonal and polyclonaI antibodies have been produced for use in immunological assays for the detection of Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei. Monoclonal antibodies recognising a high molecular weight polysaccharide material found in some strains of both species have been shown to be effective in recognising B.

Evaluation of Recombinant Proteins of Burkholderia mallei for Serodiagnosis of Glanders [PDF]
ABSTRACTGlanders is a contagious disease caused by the Gram-negative bacillusBurkholderia mallei. The number of equine glanders outbreaks has increased steadily during the last decade. The disease must be reported to the Office International des Epizooties, Paris, France.

Burkholderia pseudomallei in Colombia: Laboratory Approaches to Enhance Diagnostic Accuracy
Background Melioidosis is a challenging disease to diagnose, and diagnostic complications can delay treatment, adversely impacting patient outcomes. Methods Over a period of 1 year, 68 isolates, initially identified as Burkholderia spp. or oxidase‐positive nonfermenting Gram‐negative bacilli (excluding Pseudomonas aeruginosa), were collected from ...

Pet and Stray Dogs’ Contribution to Zoonotic Transmission Pathways: A Bibliometric Review
Based on a large‐scale bibliometric dataset, domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) emerge as the most frequently cited host species in the context of zoonoses, being mentioned in at least 10% of publications for nearly a quarter of the pathogens recognized as zoonotic to humans.

Onion‐pathogenic Burkholderia species: Role and regulation of characterized virulence determinants
Protein secretion systems and toxoflavin are well‐characterized virulence factors in onion‐pathogenic Burkholderia species. The tofIMR quorum‐sensing system and qsmR regulate multiple Burkholderia virulence factors. Abstract Members of the bacterial genus Burkholderia are a routine threat to onion production worldwide.

Preparation of a Burkholderia Mallei Vaccine [PDF]
Abstract : Since Burkholderia mallie is of significance as an agent of bioterrorism (Category B, Centers for Disease Control, U.S.) and biological warfare, the development of effective vaccines and treatments is of particular concern. Our understanding of the disease caused by this organism is rapidly emerging, and we must move forward with our studies
