In vitro synergism of combinations of colistin with selected antibiotics against colistin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii

[english] Aim: The in vitro activity of colistin in combination with sulbactam, netilmicin, and vancomycin against colistin-resistant strains was investigated. Furthermore, the clonal relationship of the strains was analyzed. Methods: Clonal relationship was investigated using rep-PCR. To screen fo...
