Burkholderia cepacia complex and cystic fibrosis
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The bacteriae previously known as ‘Burkholderia cepacia’ have been reclassified as nine closely related species, sometimes referred to as ‘genomovars’ (Table 1), (Coenye et al, 2001; Mahenthiralingam et al, 2002). Collectively these are commonly referred to as ‘Burkholderia cepacia complex’ (Bcc). The various genomovars have different pathogenic potential (Keig et al, 1999; Bevivino et al, 2002; Chu et al, 2002; Cystic Fibrosis Trust Infection Control Group, 2004).

Background and Aim: Cystic fibrosis is a common hereditary and autosomal disorder. One of the factors in cystic fibrosis is Burkholderia cepacia which can be transmitted through the sharing of admitted patients with hospitalized patients. Purpose of this study, was isolation and identification of Burkholderia cepacia from respiratory secretions from Masih Daneshvari Hospital cystic fibrosis...

Background: Complex of Burkholderia cepacia is one of the main and serious causes of infections in cystic fibrosis patients that can be highly transmissible. Small hospital outbreaks are frequent and are usually due to a single contaminated environmental source. The pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is widely used to identify the strain emission sources in cystic fibrosis patients. The ai...

We examined if multilocus sequence typing (MLST), a method for genotyping and species identification of Burkholderia cepacia complex bacteria, could be applied directly to cystic fibrosis sputum. The redesigned nested-PCR MLST format was successfully used to accurately identify strains in 23 sputum samples, of which 8 were culture negative.

Burkholderia contaminans belongs to the Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), a group of bacteria that are ubiquitous in the environment and capable of infecting the immunocompromised and people with cystic fibrosis. We report here draft genome sequences for the B. contaminans type strain LMG 23361 and an Argentinian cystic fibrosis sputum isolate.
متن کاملIsolation of Burkholderia cepacia by enrichment.
Burkholderia cepacia is a recognised cause of respiratory failure in patients with cystic fibrosis. The value of routine use of selective enrichment broth to increase the yield of B cepacia from cystic fibrosis sputa was investigated. Two hundred sputa from 86 adult and paediatric patients were cultured onto B cepacia selective agar and also in enrichment broth. The enrichment broths were subcu...
