Capsule production of K. pneumoniae ∆chaB. a DIC microscopy at 100x magnification of WT and ∆chaB strain at mid-log phase of growth. Scale bar = 100 μm. b Uronic acid assay to measure capsule production. Concentration calculated using a glucuronic acid standard curve. *denotes significant difference inferred by ANOVA followed by Tukey HSD test (p-value ≤0.05) between WT and tested strains
