The results of serotypes K1 and K2 K. pneumoniae identification by different typing methods. a Capsular swelling test showing capsular serotypes K1/K2 following reaction with K1 and K2 antiserum. Saline (0.9%) was used as control. Images were captured using a phase contrast microscope (original magnification, 1000×). b Capsular serotypes K1/K2 detected by the PCR testing. Visualization of the bands on an agarose (1.5%) gel for the capsular serotypes K1/K2 strains (K1, K2). Size of each amplicon is indicated at the side. M, markers. c Capsular serotypes K1/K2 detected by means of ICSs. The red line in the ICS indicated serotype K1 or K2 is shown
