Complete genome sequence of the encephalomyelitic Burkholderia pseudomallei strain MSHR305 [PDF]

, 2013
We describe the complete genome sequence of Burkholderia pseudomallei MSHR305, a clinical isolate taken from a fatal encephalomyelitis case, a rare form of melioidosis. This sequence will be used for comparisons to identify the genes that are involved in

Risk Factors for Melioidosis and Bacteremic Melioidosis [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1999
A case-control study was conducted in four hospitals in northeastern Thailand to identify risk factors for melioidosis and bacteremic melioidosis. Cases were patients with culture-proven melioidosis, and there were two types of controls (those with infections, i.e., with community-acquired septicemia caused by other bacteria, and those without ...

Adherence of Burkholderia pseudomallei cells to cultured human epithelial cell lines is regulated by growth temperature. [PDF]

, 2002
We have investigated the adherence of Burkholderia pseudomallei, cultured under a number of different conditions, to six human epithelial cell lines. While several complex medium compositions had relatively little effect on adherence, growth at 30àwas ...
