A total of 1511 samples were aseptically collected from diseased human suffering urinary tract infection (UTI), respiratory tract infection (RTI) [blood (190), sputum (300), urine (637), wound (360) and pus (24) , also 640 samples were aseptically collected from sick infant in intensive care unit (ICU) [blood (216), pharyngeal swab (72) and mechanical ventilator (52)
from Neonatal unit , while animals samples were 265 milk samples from mastitic animals [cows (120), buffaloes (120) and goats (25), also 41 nasal passage samples were collected from dead chick, 42 lung and liver tissue samples were collected from infected sheep and 230 bone samples were aseptically collected from clinically infected dog. The results revealed
that K. pneumoniae was isolated in 87 (6%) out of (1511) human patients, blood samples were11 (6%), sputum samples 13 (4%), urine samples were 36 (6%) wound samples 24 (7%) and pus samples were 3 (12.5%) from isolates that confirmed K. pneumoniae. The number of K. pneumoniae isolates from milk sample was 5 (1.9%) out of (265) from isolates were
K. pneumonia , K. pneumoniae were isolated in111 (33%) out of 640 infant samples, blood samples were 87(40%), pharyngeal swab21 (29%), mechanical ventilator 3 (6%) from isolates that confirmed K. pneumoniae, K. pneumoniae were isolated in 8 (19.5%) out of (41) chicken nasal passage samples ,1( 2.4%) out of 42 sheep lung and liver tissue samples , 5(2%) out of 230 dog bone marrow samples and 3(33%) out of rabbit nasal swab samples.
