Interaction of Klebsiella capsule type 7 with human polymorphonuclear leucocytes.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Nov 1992

Podschun R, Penner I, Ullmann U

Abstract excerpt

Klebsiella serotype K7 is found among the capsule types that are most prevalent in respiratory tract isolates. To evaluate the significance of the K7 antigen in bacteria-leucocyte interactions, K7-encapsulated Klebsiella pneumoniae strains and their non-capsulate mutants were investigated. The K7...
