Klebsiella oxytoca causes colonization resistance against multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae in the gut via cooperative carbohydrate competition.

Cell Host and Microbe, 2021
Gut colonization with multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria enhances the risk of bloodstream infections in susceptible individuals. We demonstrate highly variable degrees of ex vivo colonization resistance against a carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella ...

A Novel Peptide as a Specific and Selective Probe for Klebsiella pneumoniae Detection

Biosensors, 2022
Klebsiella pneumoniae is infamous for generating hospital-acquired infections, many of which are difficult to treat due to the bacterium’s multidrug resistance. A sensitive and robust detection method of K. pneumoniae can help prevent a disease outbreak.

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.

Genetic and Functional Analysis of the pks Gene in Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
The pks gene cluster encodes colibactin, which can cause DNA damage and enhance the virulence in Escherichia coli. However, the role of the pks gene in Klebsiella pneumoniae has not been fully discussed.

Natural antibiotic susceptibility of Klebsiella pneumoniae, K. oxytoca, K. planticola, K. ornithinolytica and K. terrigena strains [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001
The natural susceptibility of 221 Klebsiella strains to 71 antibiotics was examined. The strains were isolated from clinical specimens and the environment, and belonged to K. pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae (n = 40), K. pneumoniae subsp. ozaenae (37), K. pneumoniae subsp. rhinoscleromatis (10), K. oxytoca (44), K. planticola (40), K.
