title: [Characteristics of Klebsiella strains isolated from patients with acute intestinal diseases].
abstract: A total of 203 Klebsiella strains isolated from patients with acute intestinal diseases were studied. The biochemical variants were determined by taking into account the complex of such signs as the capacity for producing indole, hydrolyzing urea, utilizing sodium malonate, fermenting inositol, dulcitol, sorbose, adonitol, synthesizing acetylmethylcarbinol, reacting with methyl red. The strains under study were found to belong to 36 K-types. Klebsiella strains with K-antigens 20, 2, 62, 60, 21, 40 showed the highest isolation rate.
