To determine whether unchlorinated bore water in northern Australia contained Burkholderia pseudomallei organisms, we sampled 55 bores; 18 (33%) were culture positive. Multilocus sequence typing identified 15 sequence types. The B. pseudomallei sequence type from 1 water sample matched a clinical isolate from a resident with melioidosis on the same property.
为了确定澳大利亚北部未经氯化处理的井水是否含有伯克霍尔德氏菌假单胞菌生物体,我们对 55 个井进行了采样;其中 18 个(33%)呈培养阳性。多位点序列分型鉴定出 15 种序列类型。从 1 个水样中分离出的伯克霍尔德氏菌假单胞菌序列类型与同一地产上一名患有类鼻疽居民的临床分离株相匹配。
