Synergistic effects of polymyxin and vancomycin combinations on carbapenem- and polymyxin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and their molecular characteristics

ABSTRACT The emergence and spread of polymyxin resistance, especially among Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates, threaten the effective management of infections. This study profiled for polymyxin resistance mechanisms and investigated the activity of polymyxins plus vancomycin against carbapenem- and pol...
