Introduction

Burkholderia pseudomallei is a highly virulent bacterium that causes melioidosis, a potentially fatal disease with symptoms ranging from fever, pneumonia, abscesses, and sepsis. Commonly found in soil and water in Southeast Asia and Northern Australia, it poses a significant public health threat, particularly in areas with tropical climates. Early detection is crucial to prevent the spread of the disease and reduce mortality rates, especially in immunocompromised individuals. Melioidosis can affect humans, animals, and is a concern in both clinical and agricultural sectors.
