Figure 2 Identification of the pathogen. A: Whole-genome sequencing results of pathogen identification; B: String test showing the hypermucoviscocous phenotype (orange arrow) of the strain Klebsiella variicola. The strain was grown on agar and the culture was touched with a disposable loop; the formation of a mucoid string greater than 5 mm indicates the formation of the hypermucoviscous phenotype.
