aerogenes in the urine were catheterisation and antibiotic therapy. Often the epidemic strain (type K16) was found not only in the patients' fces but also on more remote skin sites such as hands, knees, groins, and the umbilicus. Resistance to gentamicin and many other antibiotics was R-...
The name Klebsiella aerogenes was originally used for the non-motile, capsulate, gas-producing strains commonly found in human faeces and in water; certain biochemically atypical Klebsiella strains isolated from the respiratory tract of man and animals were designated K. pneumoniae. The name K. pneu...
A gentamicin-resistant strain of Klebsiella aerogenes was isolated from the urine of 17 patients out of 237 admitted to a male urological ward between Jan. 21 and May 9, 1977. The factors most frequently associated with K. aerogenes in the urine were catheterisation and antibiotic therapy. Often...
A biochemical typing method is described for Klebsiella pneumoniae (sensu lato) and Enterobacter aerogenes. The technique depends on differences in metabolism of five carbon substrates--glycerol, inositol, lactose, glucose, and xylose--at two concentrations. Reproducibility is satisfactory and is monitored...
Different bacteria and fungi live as commensal organisms as part of the human microbiota, but shifts to a pathogenic state potentially leading to septic infections commonly occur in immunocompromised individuals. Several studies have reported synergistic
A broth medium for the detection of Klebsiella, specifically Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter in urine. The medium employs 3-(. alpha.-acetonylbenzyl)-4-hydroxycoumarin and 2,4 dinitro-phenyl hydrazone of &agr;-Ketoglutoric acid to inhibit growth of Escherichia Coli organisms and to promot...

aerogenes and E. cloacae strains, including antibiotic-resistant, ESBL, or carbapenemase—producing strains, have been isolated from products such as fresh produce, seafood, raw and bulk tank milk as well as meats (Geser et al., 2012; Li et al., 2016). The species also occurs in the ...
