We investigated variations in the rate of persister cell formation against meropenem in 68 Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from blood. The persister cell formation rates varied markedly but were not significantly different between the patient survival group and death group at 30 days. In addition, they were not associated with the patients' underlying diseases. However, the isolates of CC15 and CC23 showed higher survival rates against 10x MIC of meropenem than CC11. The survival rate of persister cells was less for amikacin and colistin than that for ciprofloxacin. When combinations of meropenem and other antibiotics were administered, persister formation rates decreased compared with those against only meropenem. However, no synergistic effect to remove persister cells was observed. Further investigation is needed to understand persister cell formation in K. pneumoniae with respect to the mechanism involved and clinical implications and that diverse strategies should be explored to remove persister cells.
