Cell adherence and internalization assay of K. pneumoniae strain NP-HvKP variants and HvKP5. Mucoviscosity (a), and uronic acid production (b) of Klebsiella strain NP-HvKP, NP-HvKP/A, NP-HvKP/A2, NP-HvKP-PC, NP-HvKP-TC and HvKP5. Assay of the ability of selected strains to adhere to lung epithelial A549 cells (c) and Caco-2 cells (d). Invasion assay of selected clinical K. pneumoniae strains using Macrophage RAW 264.7 cells (e) and intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells (f). Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA test. Each data point was repeated three times (n = 3). Data are presented as the mean ± s.e.m. * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; **** P < 0.0001. Abbreviation: NS, not significant
