Isoelectric Focusing Fractionation Method for Signal Enhancement in Detection of Inactivated Biological Agents Using Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry

ELECTROPHORESIS, Volume 46, Issue 3-4, Page 212-220, February 2025.
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 ...

The early stage of bacterial genome-reductive evolution in the host.

PLoS Pathogens, 2010
The equine-associated obligate pathogen Burkholderia mallei was developed by reductive evolution involving a substantial portion of the genome from Burkholderia pseudomallei, a free-living opportunistic pathogen.

The role of small proteins in Burkholderia cenocepacia J2315 biofilm formation, persistence and intracellular growth [PDF]

, 2019
Burkholderia cenocepacia infections are difficult to treat due to resistance, biofilm formation and persistence. B. cenocepacia strain J2315 has a large multi-replicon genome (8.06 Mb) and the function of a large fraction of (conserved) hypothetical ...

Burkholderia pseudomallei in Colombia: Laboratory Approaches to Enhance Diagnostic Accuracy

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
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 ...
