Tellurite-based selective growth media are used for several bacterial pathogens. We found that, in Klebsiella pneumoniae, tellurite resistance is strongly associated with hypervirulent clonal group 23 (CG23), CG65, and CG86, providing a novel approach for screening environmental or carriage samples. The terW gene was also associated with these groups.
基于亚碲酸盐的选择性生长培养基用于多种细菌病原体。我们发现,在肺炎克雷伯菌中,亚碲酸盐抗性与高毒力克隆群23(CG23)、CG65和CG86密切相关,为筛选环境样本或携带样本提供了一种新方法。terW基因也与这些菌群相关。
