Burkholderia pseudomallei: animal models of infection.
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2008 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.

Misidentification of Burkholderia pseudomallei, China [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021 We report a case of melioidosis in China and offer a comparison of 5 commercial detection systems for Burkholderia pseudomallei. The organism was misidentified by the VITEK 2 Compact, Phoenix, VITEK mass spectrometry, and API 20NE systems but was eventually identified by the Bruker Biotyper system and 16S rRNA sequencing.

The Burkholderia pseudomallei intracellular ‘TRANSITome’ [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 AbstractProkaryotic cell transcriptomics has been limited to mixed or sub-population dynamics and individual cells within heterogeneous populations, which has hampered further understanding of spatiotemporal and stage-specific processes of prokaryotic cells within complex environments.

Burkholderia pseudomallei and melioidosis
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2023 Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of melioidosis, is found in soil and water of tropical and subtropical regions globally. Modelled estimates of the global burden predict that melioidosis remains vastly under-reported, and a call has been made for it to be recognized as a neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization.

Burkholderia pseudomallei Endophthalmitis [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2007 ABSTRACT Melioidosis is an infectious disease caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei , a gram-negative bacillus. We report a case of endogenous endophthalmitis caused by B. pseudomallei that was treated with systemic and intravitreal ceftazidime.

Alanine racemase mutants of Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei and use of alanine racemase as a non-antibiotic-based selectable marker. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei are category B select agents and must be studied under BSL3 containment in the United States. They are typically resistant to multiple antibiotics, and the antibiotics used to treat B.

A case of melioidosis with hemoptysis: Strategies to isolate and identify Burkholderia pseudomallei
Journal of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2023 Background: Melioidosis is an infectious disease caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei with diverse clinical manifestations. Mortality is due to septic shock and pneumonia. Burkholderia pseudomallei is a Gram-negative rod with bipolar staining. Culture is

Structure analysis of biologically important prokaryotic glycopolymers [PDF]
, 2013 Of the many post-translational modifications organisms can undertake, glycosylation is the most prevalent and the most diverse. The research in this thesis focuses on the structural characterisation of glycosylation in two classes of glycopolymer (
