Rapid Detection of MCR-Mediated Colistin Resistance in Escherichia coli

Rapid Detection of MCR-Mediated Colistin Resistance in Escherichia coli

ABSTRACT Colistin is one of the last-resort antibiotics for infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. However, the wide spread of novel plasmid-carrying colistin resistance genes mcr-1 and its variants substantially compromise colistin's therapeutic effectiveness and pose...
