<em>Klebsiella pneumoniae</em> Clinical Strains of Hypervirulent Capsular Serotypes K1 and K2 Demonstrating Resistance against Human Serum Bactericidal Activity and Virulence in Galleria mellonella Model
2024-01-10
Abstract excerpt
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) is a variant that has been increasingly linked to severe, life threatening infections including pyogenic liver abscess and bloodstream infections. HvKp belonging to the capsular serotypes K1 and K2 have been reported worldwide, however very scarce studies are available on the their genomics and virulence.
