  Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is one of the most important etiological factors of urinary tract infections in renal transplant (RTx) recipients. We described the antimicrobial susceptibility phenotypes and genomic features of two hypermucoviscous (HM) Kp isolates recovered from RTx recipients with asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU). Using whole genome sequencing (WGS) data, we showed that the strains belong to the ST152 lineage with the...

  In recent years, there has been an observed increase in infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia (Kp) strains. The aim of this study was the phenotypic and genotypic analysis of eight K. pneumoniae NDM (Kp NDM) isolates, recovered in Poland during the years 2016 and 2018 from seven patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs), asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU), or colonization of the gut. PCR melting profile...

  In this study, a novel low-cost polishing method for internal surface roughness reduction of additively manufactured components, developed for waveguide (WG) circuits operating in the millimeter frequency range is proposed. WG components fabricated using powder bed fusion (PBF) generally feature roughness of ten to fifty microns, which influences the increase of roughness-related conductor power losses having a major effect on...

  Bakterie z gatunku Klebsiella pneumoniae należą do oportunistycznych patogenów odpowiedzialnych za zakażenia szpitalne. Drobnoustroje te wykazują skłonność do oporności wielolekowej i wysokiej wirulencji, co stanowi poważne zagrożenie dla pacjentów nieimmunokompetentnych. Wśród pacjentów po transplantacji nerki zakażenia układu moczowego (ZUM) stanowią najczęstszą przyczynę powikłań infekcyjnych. Mechanizmy molekularne leżące u...
