	Burkholderia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Burkholderia is a genus of proteobacteria probably best-known for its pathogenic members - Burkholderia mallei responsible for glanders, a disease that occurs mostly in horses and related animals, Burkholderia pseudomallei - causing agent of melioidosis and Burkholderia cepacia - an important source of pulmonary infection in people with cystic fibrosis.
		The usage of Burkholderia in agricultural purposes (as biodegradation and biocontrol means and plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria) is subject to discussions because of possible pathogenic effects in immuno-compromised people (esp. CF -sufferers), e.g., in-hospital infections.
		Due to relative resistance to antibiotics and rather high mortality rate Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei are sometimes considered as potential biological warfare agents targeting livestock and humans.

	DBMD - Glanders - General Information (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Glanders is an infectious disease that is caused by the bacterium Burkholderia mallei.
		Burkholderia mallei is an organism that is associated with infections in laboratory workers because so very few organisms are required to cause disease.
		Burkholderia mallei is usually sensitive to tetracyclines, ciprofloxacin, streptomycin, novobiocin, gentamicin, imipenem, ceftrazidime, and the sulfonamides.

	GENOME ANALYSIS OF BURKHOLDERIA CEPACIA AC1100
		Burkholderia cepacia is an important organism in bioremediation of environmental pollutants and it is also of increasing interest as a human pathogen.
		Burkholderia (formerly Pseudomonas) cepacia is important in environmental microbiology and bioremediation of numerous toxic compounds (Lessie and Gaffney, 1986; Bhat et al., 1994; Shields and Reagin, 1992; Shields et al., 1995).
		Burkholderia cepacia strains AC1100, which metabolizes 2,4,5-T (Kilbane et al., 1982), and PT88, a transposon induced mutation of AC1100 (Sangodkar et al., 1988), were provided by A. Chakrabarty.

	Burkholderia mallei
		The causative agent of glanders in the genus Burkholderia is Burkholderia mallei.
		Mechanism: Burkholderia mallei cells are transmitted to humans by inhalation of bacteria in aerosols or dust or contact with infected animals.
		Pathogenesis Mechanism: Burkholderia mallei pathogenesis is characterized by nodules, abscesses and ulcers in the mucous membranes, skin, lymphatic vessels and/or subcutaneous tissues.

		Burkholderia pseudomallei is an organism that has been considered as a potential agent for biological warfare and biological terrorism.

		Burkholderia cepacia is a bacterium that is currently attracting considerable attention for its extraordinary versatility as a plant pathogen, saprophyte, biocontrol agent, bioremediation agent, and human pathogen.
