[The surface structures and biological properties of Klebsiella strains].
The electron-microscopic method has been used to study the surface structures and biological properties (adhesiveness, antibiotic-resistance, biochemical properties) in 67 strains of Klebsiella isolated from one-year-old children with intestinal infections (56) and from healthy ones (11). It is found that bacterial cells in 58.2% of strains have fimbriae of the 3d type, in 20.9%--of the 1st type. No correlation has been revealed between the type of fimbriae and the studied properties.
