Multi-resistant strains of Klebsiella species sometimes cause serious hospital infection problems. Klebsiella infection of the urine often responds to trimethoprim, nitrofurantoin, co-amoxiclav or oral cephalosporins. Pneumonia and other serious infections require vigorous treatment with an aminoglycoside or a...
This study was undertaken to determine the Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases (ESBLs) producers among Escherichia coli and Klebsiella species isolated from the clinical specimens. A total of 200 specimens collected from the patients admitted in the tertiary care hospital were in...
(Pathology) inflammation of one or both lungs, in which the air sacs (alveoli) become filled with liquid, which renders them useless for breathing. It is usually caused by bacterial (esp pneumococcal) or viral infection [C17: New Latin from Greek frompneumōnlung] ...
Data showed about 98.4% of patients treated with intravenous meropenem/vaborbactam exhibited cure/improvement in symptoms and a negative urine culture result, compared with 94.3% of patients treated with piperacillin/tazobactam. About one week posttreatment, approximately 77% of patients treated with ...
A urine full report showed proteinuria (++) with 3–5 pus cells per high power field and the urine culture was negative. Stool examination was negative for amoebae, ova, or cysts. His initial serum creatinine level was 134 microgram/L and increased up to 647 microgram/L reflecting acute ...
pneumonia strains in GenBank. The resultant phylogenetic tree aligned coherently with universally acknowledged species definitions based on culture and morphology [43, 46]. This study sought to determine the influence of various cultivation conditions on HA production by K. pneumoniae H15. Our findings...
We used tellurite agar culture as a rapid screening test in this study. The isolates that formed black colonies on this tellurite-containing selective medium were considered as presumptive hypervirulent strains for further study. For this purpose, 0.1 g of potassium tellurite powder was first dissolv...
KPC-KP was isolated from urine in 16 patients (80%), from blood in 1 patient (10%), rectal surveillance culture in 1 patient (5%) and rectal surveillance culture and blood in 1 patient (5%). KPC-KP was classified as representing colonization in 45% of patients that was similar in ...

Klebsiellaspecies are among the well-studied microbes both in medicine field, as ones of the most resilient opportunistic pathogens, and in industry, due to their promising biochemical properties.klebsiellastrains were especially investigated for degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons kerosene (Ali ...
