Comparative Proteomic Profiling of Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains and the Corresponding Outer Membrane Vesicles

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) has become a global threat due to the convergence of carbapenem resistance and hypervirulence. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) play important roles in bacterial pathogenicity, yet their functional coordination with strains remains unclear.

Klebsiella pneumoniae in Singapore: Hypervirulent Infections and the Carbapenemase Threat [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Klebsiella pneumoniae remains a major pathogen responsible for localized infections such as cystitis and pneumonia, and disseminated infections that may result in severe sepsis and death. Invasive disease such as liver abscesses and endogenous endophthalmitis are associated with capsular serotypes K1 and K2.

Bactericidal, Bacteriostatic, and Fungicidal Activities of Clausena anisata Fruit and Its Compounds, Stigmasteryl 3‐Palmitate (a Phytosterol Ester) and Phellopterin (a Furanocoumarin), Against Some Clinical Pathogens

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
C. anisata fruit extract and its compounds demonstrated potent broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity, notably against Klebsiella pneumoniae (MIC 0.625 mg/mL; MLC 2.5 mg/mL) and Candida albicans (MIC 0.0781 mg/mL; MLC 0.625 mg/mL). The findings highlight promising bactericidal and fungicidal potential of stigmasteryl 3‐palmitate and phellopterin against

A Simple and Label‐Free Gold Nanoparticle Assay and Duplex PCR for Rapid Detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae K2

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
A rapid, cost‐effective dual‐detection strategy for Klebsiella pneumoniae K2 was developed by combining a label‐free AuNP colorimetric assay (LOD: 1.56 ng/μL, 60 min) with duplex PCR targeting K2A and orf10 genes (LOD: 1 pg/μL). This approach enables rapid screening with accurate genetic validation for point‐of‐care diagnostics in resource‐limited ...

A Case Series of Hypermucoid Klebsiella pneumoniae Liver Abscess in Caucasian Americans Without Travel History: An Epidemiologic Shift?

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) is an emerging cause of community‐acquired pyogenic liver abscess (PLA), classically described in East and Southeast Asia. We report two cases of hvKp‐associated PLA in Caucasian women of American origin with no history of international travel, animal exposure, or Asian food consumption. Both patients
