Antimicrobial resistance and virulence characteristics of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> isolates in Kenya

2022-02-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Klebsiella pneumoniae is a globally significant opportunistic pathogen causing healthcare-associated and community-acquired infections. This study examined the epidemiology and the distribution of resistance and virulence genes in clinical K. pneumoniae strains in Kenya. Eighty-nine K. pneumoniae isolates were collected over six years from five counties in Kenya and were analyzed using whole g...
