Bacteriological characteristics of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae rmpA gene (hvKp-rmpA)-harboring strains in the south of Iran
Background and Objectives: To provide data on the occurrence of classical K. pneumoniae (cKp) and hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) strains harboring the gene encoding regulator of mucoid phenotype A (rmpA) and evaluated characteristics of virulence biomarkers, carbapenemase, extended-spec...
