Differential mucoid exopolysaccharide production by members of the Burkholderia cepacia complex.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Apr 2008

Abstract excerpt

We demonstrate that all nine species of the Burkholderia cepacia complex can express the mucoid phenotype. A survey of clinical isolates showed that strains of B. cenocepacia, the most virulent species of the complex, are most frequently nonmucoid. Additionally, isolates from patients with chronic infections can convert from mucoid to nonmucoid.
