Burkholderia cepacia: medical, taxonomic and ecological issues

1 Dec 1996

Abstract excerpt

The increasing challenge posed by multiresistant saprophytes in medical microbiology is strikingly demonstrated by the emergence of Burkholderia (formerly Pseudomonas) cepacia as an opportunist pathogen in immunocompromised patients, particularly individuals with chronic granulomatous disease and cystic fibrosis (CF). Best known previously as a phytopathogen and the cause of soft rot of onions, B. cepacia...
