Newest firstKlebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) has emerged as an important cause of two distinct public health threats: multidrug resistant (MDR) healthcare-associated infections1 and community-acquired invasive infections, particularly pyogenic liver abscess2. The majority of MDR hospital outbreaks are caused by a subset of Kp clones with a high prevalence of acquired antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes, while the majority of commu…
Open article record in new tab ↗BackgroundKlebsiella pneumoniae is a recognised agent of multidrug-resistant (MDR) healthcare-associated infections, however individual strains vary in their virulence potential due to the presence of mobile accessory genes. In particular, gene clusters encoding the biosynthesis of siderophores aerobactin (iuc) and salmochelin (iro) are associated with invasive disease and are common amongst hypervirulent K. pneum…
BackgroundKlebsiella pneumoniae and close relatives are a growing cause of healthcare-associated infections for which increasing rates of multi-drug resistance are a major concern. The Klebsiella polysaccharide capsule is a major virulence determinant and epidemiological marker. However, little is known about capsule epidemiology since serological typing is not widely accessible, and many isolates are serologicall…
