Assessment of airway distribution of transnasal solutions in mice by PET/CT imaging. [PDF]
, 2009 PURPOSE: Transnasal administration is one of the most common routes for allergen challenge in mouse models of airway diseases. Although this technique is widely used, neither the amount of allergen that reaches the lung nor its airway distribution has ...

Galleria mellonella as an alternative infection model for Yersinia pseudotuberculosis
, 2009 We report that larvae of the wax moth (Galleria mellonella) are susceptible to infection with the human enteropathogen Yersinia pseudotuberculosis at 37 degrees C. Confocal microscopy demonstrated that in the initial stages of infection the bacteria were

Diversity of the parB and repA genes of the Burkholderia cepacia complex and their utility for rapid identification of Burkholderia cenocepacia [PDF]
, 2008 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.

Sequence-Defined Transposon Mutant Library of
mBio, 2013 We constructed a near-saturation transposon mutant library for Burkholderia thailandensis, a low-virulence surrogate for the causative agent of melioidosis (Burkholderia pseudomallei). A primary set of nearly 42,000 unique mutants (~7.5 mutants/gene) was

Multi-system infection – tuberculosis or melioidosis?
The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2018 Melioidosis is a multi-system disorder which is often mistaken for tuberculosis in the Indian sub-continent. It is caused by the gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei.

Pollen-induced airway inflammation, hyper-responsiveness and apoptosis in a murine model of allergy.
, 2007 BACKGROUND: Previous studies indicate that murine models are useful tools for studying the allergic diseases, including certain aspects of bronchial asthma such as cellular tissue inflammation and pulmonary function. OBJECTIVE: To develop an experimental

Antibiosis activities against burkholderia pseudomallei by other burkholderia species [PDF]
, 2015 Burkholderia pseudomallei is known as a significant causative agent of melioidosis and a versatile species of bacteria which inhabit diverse ecological niches including soil and water sources.
