Distribution of Burkholderia cepacia Complex Species among Isolates Recovered from Persons with or without Cystic Fibrosis

Department of Pediatrics and Communicable Diseases, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 48109

Received 8 December 2004/ Returned for modification 18 January 2005/ Accepted 24 January 2005

We analyzed Burkholderia cepacia complex isolates recovered from 1,218 cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and 90 patients without CF. Although all B. cepacia complex species were found, some were rarely identified. The distribution of species differed between the CF and non-CF populations and appears to be changing over time among CF patients.
