Molecular Detection of Key Virulence-associated Genes and Phenotypic Analysis of Virulence Traits of Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates from Kenya

Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen and a major cause of nosocomial infections. Phenotypic analysis of virulence and molecular typing of virulence-associated genes are powerful approaches to understanding Klebsiella pneumoniae infection biology. This study subjected 102 clinical Klebs...
