Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases ESBLs Although ESBLs can be made by different bacteria, they are most often made by E. coli (more correctly called Escherichia coli). Therefore, the remainder of this article refers to E. coli. Other bacteria that can also make ESBLs include the species called Klebsiella.

- Lactobacillus may also cause arthritis, bloating, blockage of a lung artery, diarrhea, disease of the esophagus, heart inflammation, liver infection, skin reactions, stomach cramping, stomach lining inflammation, stomach rumbling, and vaginal burning and discomfort.actobacillus may cause bacteremia, a condition in which there are bacteria in the blood. Use cautiously in people who have a high fever. Use cautiously in people who have fixed orthodontic appliances (i.e., braces), chewing problems, or misaligned teeth, as L. acidophilus may cause tooth decay.

What causes klebsiella pneumoniae? Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria. It can cause pneumonia, urinary tract infection and sepsis. In the human, it can reside in the upper respiratory tract and the gastrointestinal tract. It can be transmitted by inhalation of respiratory droplets or aspiration from the upper respiratory tract to the lungs.

- Klebsiella is a 'superbug' that causes a range of diseases, depending on which part of the body it infects. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a bacterium that normally lives inside human intestines, where it doesn't cause disease. However, if K. pneumoniae gets into other areas of the body, it can cause a range of different illnesses. These include: 1  Pneumonia.  Bloodstream infections.

Klebsiella pneumoniae In the clinical setting, it is the most significant member of the Klebsiella genus of the Enterobacteriaceae. K. oxytoca and K. rhinoscleromatis have also been demonstrated in human clinical specimens. In recent years, Klebsiella species have become important pathogens in nosocomial infections.

White mold (Sclerotinia) It causes white mold and watery soft rots of vegetables. On peanut crops, S. minor causes Sclerotinia blight, a serious disease affecting all plant parts. S. minor causes lettuce drop by infecting plant roots, although in some fields aerial infection by S. sclerotiorum ascospores may also contribute to the disease.

klebsiella pneumoniae moderate growth Klebsiella is very stubborn and quite resistant to most antibiotics. But the last thing my body needs is more antibiotics since I think the two dozen courses of the last decade or so were the cause of my gut complaints in the first place. So I chose to go the DIY Fecal Transplant Pill route instead.

SHIGELLA SHIGELLA. Shigella is a genus of Gram-negative, nonspore forming, non-motile, rod-shaped bacteria closely related to Escherichia coli and Salmonella. The causative agent of human shigellosis, Shigella causes disease in primates, but not in other mammals.It is only naturally found in humans and apes.higella infection is typically via ingestion (fecal–oral contamination); depending on age and condition of the host, less than 100 bacterial cells can be enough to cause an infection. Shigella causes dysentery that results in the destruction of the epithelial cells of the intestinal mucosa in the cecum and rectum.

The Lowdown on Lichen Sclerosus The cause is unknown, although an overactive immune system may play a role. Some people may have a genetic tendency toward the disease, and many studies suggest that abnormal hormone levels may also play a role. Some scientists believe that an infectious bacterium, called a spirochete, may cause the changes in the immune system that lead to Lichen Sclerosus. But the fact that most women that get LS are of menopausal age, and also have other auto-immune issues, seems to indicate there is a hormonal and auto-immune connection.

Klebsiella pneumoniae in Healthcare Settings Klebsiella infections that are not drug-resistant can be treated with antibiotics. Infections caused by KPC-producing bacteria can be difficult to treat because fewer antibiotics are effective against them. In such cases, a microbiology laboratory must run tests to determine which antibiotics will treat the infection.
