PCR characterization and typing of Klebsiella pneumoniae using capsular type-specific, variable number tandem repeat and virulence gene targets.

Journal of medical microbiology - 1 May 2010

Turton Jane F, Perry Claire, Elgohari Suzanne, Hampton Catherine V

Abstract excerpt

A multiplex PCR is described which detects capsular types K1, K2, K5, K54 and K57, which are those most associated with invasive disease or pathogenicity, a further capsular type (K20), two putative virulence factors (rmpA and wcaG) and the 16S-23S internal transcribed spacer unit of Klebsiella p...
