Abstract

Klebsiella Pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen, which mostly cause nosocomial infections. K.Pneumoniae utilizes a variety of virulence factors, especially capsule polysaccharide, lipopolysaccharide,fimbriae, outer membrane proteins and determinants for iron acquisition and nitrogen source utilization,for survival and immune evasion during infection. A total of (36) clinical swab specimens isolated frompatient with diabetic foot ulcer in Al-Sdder Medical City (Central Diabetic Foot) in Najaf Governorate,Iraq from November 2019 to February 2020 , for detection some virulence capsular polysaccharide genessuch as rmpA and magA that related with K1 serotype of K . pneumonia and associated with antibioticresistance pattern in patient of diabetic foot ulcer. Antibiotic susceptibility test of K. Pneumoniae isolatesagainst (20) of commonly used antibiotic showed there 25 (69%) of K. pneumonia isolate from diabeticfoot patient were Multi-drug resistance (MDR),while11(31%) were extensive-drug resistance (XDR). Theresults of amplified product demonstrated that K1 serotype of K . Pneumonia was positive in 23 (64%)of totally clinical specimen than other types of serotype ( Non-K1 serotype). (magA) gene that associatedwith hypermucoid viscosity was positive in 21 (58%) of total specimens while (rmpA) gene that regulate ofcapsular polysaccharide of K .pneumonia was positive in 22 (62%) of totally samples
