Diverse polysaccharide production and biofilm formation abilities of clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Abstract excerpt

Klebsiella pneumoniae infections have become a growing threat for human health. The lack of understanding of the relationship between antibiotic resistance, mucoviscosity, and biofilm formation impedes our abilities to effectively predict K. pneumoniae infection outcomes. The Multidrug-Resistant Organism Repository and Surveillance Network offers a unique opportunity into the genetic and phenotypic variabilities...
