Human infections associated with Bordetella bronchiseptica.
This study examines the potential of Bordetella bronchiseptica to act as a human pathogen. After encountering two patients from whom B. bronchiseptica was isolated, we searched the literature and found 23 reports in which a human infection was reported in association with B. bronchiseptica. As a basis for evaluating these cases, we summarize the literature about the current microbiological stat...
متن کاملBordetella bronchiseptica bronchitis.
The clinical course of a patient with bronchitis caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica is described. The organism was recovered on one occasion from a protected catheter brush specimen obtained at bronchoscopy and on two occasions from expectorated sputum specimens. The infection was eradicated with antimicrobial therapy.
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility of Bordetella avium and Bordetella bronchiseptica isolates.
Two veterinary pathogens, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella avium, were tested for their antimicrobial susceptibilities. Of the 20 antimicrobial agents tested, both species were consistently resistant to penicillin and cefuroxime but susceptible to mezlocillin, piperacillin, gentamicin, amikacin, and cefoperazone.
متن کاملExperimental infection of Bordetella bronchiseptica to rabbits.
Infectivity and pathogenicity of Bordetella bronchiseptica to rabbits were investigated by intranasal inoculation of the organism to suckling and young animals. Results are summarized as follows. 1. By inoculation of 5 X 10(4) and 10(6) organisms, the infection developed in 60% and 100% of young rabbits, respectively. 2. In young rabbits, the growth of the organism was evident in the trachea wi...
متن کاملCharacterization of BrkA expression in Bordetella bronchiseptica.
BrkA confers resistance to killing by complement in Bordetella pertussis. Complement resistance in Bordetella bronchiseptica was examined. Four B. bronchiseptica strains possessed the brkA gene; however, only three expressed the protein. Only the strain lacking BrkA was susceptible to complement. Introduction of the B. pertussis brkA gene restored BrkA expression to this strain but did not conf...
