Default The Clinically Important List of Urease Producing Bacteria

The bacteria mentioned in this thread are important microbiologically. In other words, the list is important for Step 1.

But for Step 2 CK there are other urease producing bugs that are far more important clinically.

These are:
Staphylococcus, Klebsiella, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Pseudomonas, and Providencia.

Important UTI bugs that absolutely does not produce urease are E.coli and Streptococci and Enterococci.
