Pseudo-outbreak of Bordetella bronchiseptica infection associated with contaminated rabbit blood used as a broth culture supplement.

David P Calfee1, John Kornblum, Stephen G Jenkins.   

Abstract

A cluster of clinical isolates of Bordetella bronchiseptica was identified by microbiology laboratory personnel. A clinical and molecular epidemiologic study determined that this cluster represented a pseudo-outbreak due to bacterial contamination of rabbit blood used as a broth culture supplement. This pseudo-outbreak highlights the importance of quality assurance programs in the laboratory.
