Impact of nutrient medium composition on protein profiling of Bordetella spp.

Objective. To perform comparative analysis of Bordetella protein profiling data and their dependence on various nutrient media. Materials and Methods. This prospective open single-center study, the protein profiles of B. pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. bronchiseptica were studied; they had been grown on nutrient media with prescription combinations. We used casein-coal agar, Borde-Gengou Agar, Regan-Lowe Charcoal Agar as the basis of the nutrient medium. Defibrinated horse, sheep, human donor blood and human donor RBCs were used as a blood component.
