Colonization, Infection, and the Accessory Genome of Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative pathogen that has a large accessory genome of plasmids and chromosomal gene loci. This accessory genome divides K. pneumoniae strains into opportunistic, hypervirulent, and multidrug-resistant groups and separates

Sputum Gram stain of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Journal of General and Family Medicine, 2023
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae has virulence genes relevant to capsule overproduction, which could lead to the finding of thick transparent area ("halo") in Gram stain. In sputum Gram stain, observation of a large Gram-negative rod with a thick capsule may not only indicate that it is K. pneumoniae but also that it is a highly virulent strain.

Effects of gallic acid on capsular polysaccharide biosynthesis in Klebsiella pneumoniae

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2022
Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a gram-negative opportunistic pathogen that causes diseases mostly in immunocompromised individuals. Recently, hypervirulent K. pneumoniae strains also cause severe disease in healthy individuals.

Outer membrane vesicles-transmitted virulence genes mediate the emergence of new antimicrobial-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2022
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) is a notorious clinical pathogen that is more likely to cause severe primary and metastatic abscesses. The dissemination of antimicrobial-resistant hvKp isolates has been reported worldwide, posing a great ...

Sources of Klebsiella and Raoultella species on dairy farms: Be careful where you walk [PDF]

, 2011
Klebsiella spp. are a common cause of mastitis, milk loss, and culling on dairy farms. Control of Klebsiella mastitis is largely based on prevention of exposure of the udder to the pathogen.

Clinical Epidemiology, Risk Factors, and Control Strategies of Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Klebsiella species cause infections at multiple sites, including lung, urinary tract, bloodstream, wound or surgical site, and brain. These infections are more likely to occur in people with preexisting health conditions.
