A multi-country study using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for rapid identification of Burkholderia pseudomallei

BMC Microbiology, 2021
Background Burkholderia pseudomallei is the bacterial causative agent of melioidosis, a difficult disease to diagnose clinically with high mortality if not appropriately treated. Definitive diagnosis requires isolation and identification of the organism.

Glutathione Impacts Both Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis Virulence and Amphibian Cellular Defense in a Chytridiomycosis Model

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
Glutathione shapes interactions between Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) and amphibian hosts. In Bd, glutathione reductase is essential for survival, and exogenous glutathione enhances zoospore release. In host cells, Bd infection depletes glutathione and increases oxidative stress.

The possibility of identifying individual strains of glanders and melioidosis pathogens with a combination of immunoblotting and DNA amplification methods

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2019
Causative agents of melioidosis and glanders are among the most dangerous bacterial pathogens for human. Moreover, Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei are considered to be potential bioterrorism agents.

Melioidosis: Case reports of confirmed Burkholderia pseudomallei in Saudi Arabia

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2020
Melioidosis is an infectious disease of tropical climates. The disease is caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. Most cases are diagnosed in southeast Asia and northern Australia. Some imported cases diagnosed in returning tourists, soldiers,

Dynamics of the CD9 interactome during bacterial infection of epithelial cells by proximity labelling proteomics

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 8, Page 2225-2247, April 2026.
We describe the CD9 interactome in epithelial cells for the first time. The interactome is diverse and dynamic and changes dependent on infection with specific bacteria. We validate these data by showing functional interaction between CD9 with CD44 or CD147. We therefore demonstrate that CD9 is a universal organiser of bacterial adhesion platforms able

Bilateral Pneumothorax-rare Manifestation of Melioidosis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2018
Melioidosis is caused by gram negative bacilli called Burkholderia pseudomallei. It is an infectious threat to southeast Asian population. It predominantly affects the diabetic people who have got exposure to the contaminated soil. As it affects multiple

Deep Tracking Neck Abscesses, Mediastinitis, and Deep Vein Thrombosis Caused by Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This case report describes a novel presentation of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans causing deep neck abscess, mediastinitis, and deep vein thrombosis. Clinicians should be aware that this organism can cause invasive extra‐oral infection.

Shotgun metagenome sequencing and informatics can accurately form a metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) of the bacterial tier 1 select agent Burkholderia pseudomallei for rapid public health response events

Microbiology Spectrum
Shotgun metagenomics, when sufficient read depth exists for each taxon, enables capturing metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) directly from a microbial community.

Burkholderia pseudomallei in Soil, US Virgin Islands, 2019

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
The distribution of Burkholderia pseudomallei in the Caribbean is poorly understood. We isolated B. pseudomallei from US Virgin Islands soil. The soil isolate was genetically similar to other isolates from the Caribbean, suggesting that B.
