Identification of a Major Cluster of Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates from Patients with Liver Abscess in Taiwan

Lau, Yeu-Jun, Hu, Bor-Shen, Wu, Wan-Ling, Lin, Yu-Hui, Chang, Hwan-You, Shi, Zhi-Yuan

Klebsiella pneumoniae has emerged as the leading liver abscess pathogen in Taiwan, with the percentage rising from 30% in the 1980s to over 80% in the 1990s. Most of the patients with K. pneumoniae...

Identification of Three Major Clones of Multiply Antibiotic-Resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae in Taiwanese Hospitals by Multilocus Sequence Typing

Shi, Zhi-Yuan, Enright, Mark C., Wilkinson, Paul, Griffiths, David, Spratt, Brian G.

In this paper we demonstrate the advantages of a new molecular typing procedure, multilocus sequence typing, for the unambiguous characterization of penicillin-resistant pneumococci. The sequences of...
