Discrimination of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Klebsiella oxytoca phylogenetic groups and other Klebsiella species by use of amplified fragment length polymorphism.
Bacteria of the genus Klebsiella are opportunistic pathogens responsible for an increasing number of multiresistant infections in hospitals. The two clinically and epidemiologically most important species, Klebsiella pneumoniae and K. oxytoca, have recently been shown to be subdivided into three and two phylogenetic groups, respectively. The aim of this study was an in depth evaluation of the a...
متن کاملANTIBIOFILM EFFECTS of Citrus limonum and Zingiber officinale Oils on BIOFILM FORMATION of Klebsiella ornithinolytica, Klebsiella oxytoca and Klebsiella terrigena SPECIES
BACKGROUND Microbial cells growing in biofilms, play a huge role in the spread of antimicrobial resistance. In this study, biofilm formation of Klebsiella strains belonging to 3 different Klebsiella species (K. ornithinolytica, K. oxytoca and K. terrigena), cooccurences' effect on biofilm formation amount and anti-biofilm effects of Citrus limon and Zingiber officinale essential oils on biofilm...
متن کاملIsolation of Klebsiella planticola from newborns in a neonatal ward.
This is the first report on the isolation of Klebsiella planticola from neonates. Over a period of 1 year, oropharyngeal and rectal swab specimens from 131 newborns on a neonatal ward were monitored for Klebsiella spp. Thirteen strains of K. planticola could be isolated, and these represented 9% of all Klebsiella spp. found. Capsule type K27 predominated, followed by capsule type K68. Our findi...
متن کاملKlebsiella species in chest infections.
SYNOPSIS Using a short series of biochemical tests already in use in many routine laboratories, it is possible to identify strains of the genus Klebsiella and to differentiate K. aerogenes from other types. Marked production of slime is not peculiar to the group and colonial appearance alone is not a satisfactory basis for identification. K. aerogenes is the type most commonly isolated from all...
متن کاملPurification and properties of pyridoxal-5'-phosphate-dependent histidine decarboxylases from Klebsiella planticola and Enterobacter aerogenes.
Histidine decarboxylases from Klebsiella planticola and Enterobacter aerogenes were purified to homogeneity and compared with the histidine decarboxylase from Morganella morganii. All three enzymes required pyridoxal 5'-phosphate as a coenzyme, showed optimal activity at pH 6.5, decarboxylated only histidine among the amino acids derived from protein, and were tetramers or dimers of identical s...
