Colistin Resistance and Molecular Characterization of the Genomes of mcr-1-Positive Escherichia coli Clinical Isolates

Research on resistance against polymyxins induced by the mcr-1 gene is gaining interest. In this study, using agar dilution method, polymerase chain reaction, and comparative genomic analysis, we investigated the colistin resistance mechanism of clinical E. coli isolates. The minimum inhibitory conc...
