The molecular diagnostic assay is to be used with the Solana molecular diagnostic instrument for the qualitative detection and differentiation of Bordetella pertussis (Whooping Cough) and
Bordetella parapertussis nucleic acids isolated from nasopharyngeal swab specimens obtained from patients suspected of having a respiratory tract infection attributable to Bordetella pertussis and
Bordetella parapertussis.
Positive cultures were confirmed by the use of agglutination sera (Remel) to identify Bordetella pertussis and
Bordetella parapertussis. Samples were also subjected to multiplex RT-PCR that targeted IS481, IS1001, and ptx A genes.
Adverse weather conditions, stress, pregnancy, lactation, immuno-suppression and old age favours infection by normal inhabitants of respiratory tract pathogens such as Mannheimia haemolytica, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae,
Bordetella parapertussis, Mycoplasma spp., Arcanobacterium pyogenes and Pasteurella spp.
Still, a similar to pertussis clinical entity caused by
Bordetella parapertussis has been also described in humans [1].
