在澳大利亚热带北方的一家汽车修理厂工作的两名机械师同时患上了上肢类鼻疽溃疡。两例患者均患有相同的脉冲场凝胶电泳（PFGE）类型（Spe I）的类鼻疽伯克霍尔德菌。环境取样鉴定为B。虽然有多种不同PFGE类型的分离株与临床分离株相比，但在商业洗手洗涤剂的容器中的假鼻疽作为可能的感染源。
Two mechanics working at a garage in tropical northern Australia simultaneously developed upper limb melioidosis ulcers. Both patients had Burkholderia pseudomallei of identical pulsed-field get electrophoresis (PFGE) type (Spe I). Environmental sampling identified B. pseudomallei in a container of commercial hand wash detergent as the likely source of infection, although there were multiple isolates of different PFGE types to the clinical isolates.
