Description Klebsiella pneumoniae is a facultative anaerobic, Gram-negative, non-motile, encapsulated, lactose-fermenting, rod-shaped bacterium. In the clinical setting, it is the most significant member of the genus Klebsiella of the Enterobacteriaceae. Although found in the normal flora of the mouth, skin and intestines, it can cause destructive changes to human and animal lungs if aspirated, specifically to the alveoli resulting in bloody, brownish or yellow colored jelly like sputum.
