Burkholderia cepacia, a species found infrequently in cystic fibrosis (CF), was isolated from 85% of patients infected with bacteria of the B. cepacia complex that visited the major Portuguese CF center, in Lisbon, during 2003 to 2005. A detailed molecular analysis revealed that this was mainly due to two B. cepacia clones. These clones were indistinguishable from two strains isolated from intrinsically contaminated nonsterile saline solutions for nasal application, detected during routine market surveillance by the Portuguese Medicines and Health Products Authority.
洋葱伯克霍尔德菌在囊性纤维化(CF)患者中并不常见,但在2003年至2005年期间,从前往里斯本主要葡萄牙CF中心就诊的感染洋葱伯克霍尔德菌复合体细菌的患者中,85%分离出了该菌。详细的分子分析表明,这主要是由于两个洋葱伯克霍尔德菌克隆。这些克隆与葡萄牙药品和保健品管理局在常规市场监测期间检测到的从用于鼻腔的内在污染非无菌盐溶液中分离出的两个菌株无法区分。
