Deskripsi

Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen of increasing public health concern due to the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance. Here, the authors provide insight into the resistance profiles, bacterial genome features and virulence genes, in a year-long prospective study of K. pneumoniae clinical isolates.
