All SMRU (SMRU-SS-Bps1 to 3, and SMRU-SS-Bth1) and seven Townsville B. pseudomallei SuperSpectra were activated and validated with 184 clinical and reference isolates that were not used in the SuperSpectra creations at three different study sites (SMRU, COMRU and Townsville): B. pseudomallei (357 spectra acquired from 119 Asian isolates, and 62 spectra acquired from 31 Australian isolates) and non-B. pseudomallei isolates (292 spectra acquired from 15 non-Burkholderia species, 11 isolates of B. thailandensis, and eight isolates of B. cepacia).
