We analyzed the whole-genome sequence of ablaOXA-48-harboringRaoultella ornithinolyticaclinical isolate from a patient in Lebanon. The size of theRaoultella ornithinolyticaCMUL058 genome was 5,622,862 bp, with a G+C content of 55.7%. We deciphered all the molecular mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, and we compared our genome to other availableR. ornithinolyticagenomes in GenBank. The resisto...

Here we report the full genome sequence of Raoultella ornithinolytica strain B6, a Gram-negative aerobic bacillus belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. This 2,3-butanediol-producing bacterium was isolated from oil-contaminated soil on Backwoon Mountain in South Korea. Strain B6 contains 5,398,151 bp with 4,909 protein-coding genes, 104 structural RNAs, and 55.88% G+C content.

The bacterium Raoultella planticola (R planticola) is a rare pathogen in humans. We report a case of mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) of biliary origin with cholangitis and bacteremia with R planticola in association with pancreatic panniculitis (PP). We present the case report of a 55-year-old woman.

Comamonas testosteroni (formally Pseudomonas testosteroni) is common environmental bacterium that is not part of the human microbiome. Since its identification as a human pathogen in 1987, numerous reports have drizzled in, implicating this organism for various infections. Although these organisms are of low virulence, some of their obscurity perhaps is due to the incapability of clinical labor...

purpose: to report a case of endogenous klebsiella endophthalmitis associated with liver abscess in iran. case report: a 79 year old man was referred with chief complaint of left eye pain and visual loss. the patient had conjunctival hyperemia, corneal edema, hypopyon and severe vitreous cellular reaction in the left eye and yellowish conjunctival discoloration which was apparent in the right e...

conclusions our study showed that the prevalence of esbl-producing k. pneumoniae at king khalid hospital was significantly high. routine detection of esbl-producing microorganisms is required by each of the laboratory standard detection methods to control the spread of these infections and allow a proper therapeutic strategy. for detection, the phenotypic confirmatory disc diffusion test is sim...

Two hundred strains ofKlebsiella species isolated from clinical specimens over a four-month period were biotyped as Klebsiella aerogenes (173 strains), Klebsiella ozaenae (15 strains), Klebsiella edwardsii (5 strains), Klebsiella atlantae (2 strains) and Klebsiella oxytoca (1 strain). Klebsiella aerogenes and Klebsiella ozaenae were more resistant towards antibiotics when compared with other sp...

sepsis is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in neonates. the most common pathogens of bacterial sepsis and antibiotic sensitivity patterns vary in different parts of the world. the aim of this study was to determine the most common pathogens and outcome of neonatal sepsis and also antibiotic sensitivity patterns of klebsiella species. a retrospective descriptive study was carried o...
