Comparison of virulence factors between ESBL and non-ESBL producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates
Iranian Journal of MicrobiologyBackground and Objectives: Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for causing nosocomial and community-acquired infections. Its pathogenicity is associated with a variety of virulence factors and antibiotic resistance. The aim of

Multi-resistant ST 258 Klebsiella pneumoniae presenting a hypermucoviscous phenotype
Abstract To characterize phenotypically and genotypically a strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae ST258 isolated from an immunosuppressed patient treated at a University Hospital in Brazil, it was performed Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing, Analysis of the Ability to form Biofilm, Genome Sequencing and String Test. The sample was characterized as

Septic arthritis subsequent to urosepsis caused by hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2014 We herein report the first case of septic arthritis caused by rmpA-positive hypermucoviscous community-acquired K. pneumoniae that followed urosepsis in a 65-year-old Japanese woman. The patient responded well to drainage of the abscesses and treatment with cefazolin. Although this virulent phenotype of K. pneumoniae has been primarily reported in Hong

Comparative genetic analysis of the antimicrobial susceptibilities and virulence of hypermucoviscous and non-hypermucoviscous ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in JapanBackground: Hypermucoviscous (HMV) Klebsiella pneumoniae produces large amounts of capsular polysaccharides, leading to high mortality. Since extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing HMV K. pneumoniae strains have increased in Japan, we investigated and compared the antimicrobial susceptibilities and genetic characteristics of HMV and non-HMV ...
