We investigated the correlation between the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) identification of six virulence genes associated with siderophore activation and the iron-uptake system (iron-acquisition genes; iuc A, ent B, fep A, ybt S, psn , and kfu ) in mastitis-associated Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae ). The growth of 37 K. pneumoniae isolates from the milk of cows with mild mastitis reared on Japanese dairy farms between October 2012 and December 2014 was examined by incubation in an iron-deficient medium. ent B-, fep A-, or ybt S-positive isolates grew significantly better than ent B-, fep A-, or ybt S-negative isolates after incubating in an iron-deficient medium for three days. Interestingly, the growth of isolates with 0 and ≥4 PCR-positive iron-acquisition genes in the iron-deficient medium were significantly different by day 2, while isolates with 2, 3, and ≥4 PCR-positive iron-acquisition genes grew significantly better than those with no PCR-positive iron-acquisition genes by day 3. Based on the correlation between the results of PCR and iron-deficient incubation tests, iron-deficient incubation for three days can be used to estimate the presence or absence of iron-acquisition genes in mastitis-associated K. pneumoniae .
