Colistin potentiation in multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii by a non-cytotoxic guanidine derivative of silver

Colistin potentiation in multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii by a non-cytotoxic guanidine derivative of silver

A novel nano-formulation (NF) that sensitizes Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) to otherwise ineffective colistin is described in the present study. Infections due to multidrug resistant (MDR) AB represent a major therapeutic challenge, especially in situations of pre-existing colistin resistance (colR)....
