Bacteremia caused by a novel Bordetella species, "B. hinzii"

Abstract: BordeteUla spp. cause respiratory tract diseases in warm-blooded animals. Only BordeteUla bronchiseptica has been reported to cause bacteremia in humans, and this rare infection usually occurs with pneumonia in immunocompromised patients. We describe "Bordetella hinzii" bacteremia in an AIDS patient without a respiratory illness. Combining biochemical phenotyping with fatty acid analysis permitted preliminary identification of this previously undescribed pathogen; identity was confirmed by DNA-DNA hybridizatio… Show more

“…However, in our experience, individual species within genera are often not differentiated, because when large numbers of strains are examined, some grow slowly, and it is often necessary to prolong the incubation period to generate sufficient cells for each strain under the same growth conditions. The differentiation of Bordetella avium and B. hinzii is an example of such a loss of resolution: cells of both species, grown for 24 h, were easily differentiated (46), whereas the same strains, grown for 48 h, were no longer distinguishable (322). Additional examples have been described by Welch (345).…”

“…They are found only in warm‐blooded animals. Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are human respiratory tract pathogens, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella hinzii are animal pathogens but are increasingly found in AIDS and cystic fibrosis patients [1–4]. Whereas B. pertussis produces R‐type lipopolysaccharide (LPS) without the polysaccharide O‐chain, B. bronchiseptica and B. hinzii LPSs have O‐chains.…”
