伯克氏菌(Burkholderia),中文又譯作“伯克霍爾德菌”。
伯克氏菌 是變形菌門的一个种类,非常古老,是一种病菌- 会引发马鼻疽,这种疾病主要发生在房子中和与其有关系的动物中,Burkholderia pseudomallei - causing 引发类鼻疽,Burkholderia cepacia - 是主要的发生在肺部的传染病在人类 with 囊肿性纤维化。 The Burkholderia (previously part of Pseudomonas) genus name refers to a group of virtually ubiquitous gram-negative, motile, obligately aerobic rod-shaped bacteria containing both animal/human (see above) and plant pathogens as well as some environmentally-important species. In particular,B. cepacia and B. fungorum are renowned as good bio-degraders of chlororganic pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). 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.
