چکیده
Pneumonia presenting at birth or occurring within first 48 hours of life is most commonly caused by E. coli, Streptococci, Klebsiella aerobacter or Enterococci(1). Congenital pneumonia produces intrauterine death in 16-20% of neonates(l). Early diagnosis and adequate treatment can reduce the mortality to a great extent. We report a case of congenital pneumonia caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae with successful outcome. A three hour old, fullterm neonate delivered vaginally weighing 2.36 kg, presented

Evaluation of antibiotic resistance associated with ophthalmic oqxAB pumps in Klebsiella pneumoniae causing urinary tract infection
Background: The urinary tract infection is the secondary most common human infection. Colon bacteria, including Klebsiella pneumonia, are the main cause of urinary tract infections. The occurrence of the antibiotic resistance is a major problem in the treatment of infections. Beta- lactamases and efflux pumps constitute the major defense mechanisms of antibiotic resistance of Klebsiella pneumon...
