Comprehensive Statistical Evaluation of Etest<sup>®</sup>, UMIC<sup>®</sup>, MicroScan and Disc Diffusion versus Standard Broth Microdilution: Workflow for an Accurate Detection of Colistin-Resistant and <i>Mcr</i>-Positive <i>E. coli</i>

Four colistin susceptibility testing methods were compared with the standard broth microdilution (BMD) in a collection of 75 colistin-susceptible and 75 <i>mcr</i>-positive <i>E. coli</i>, including ST131 isolates. Taking BMD as reference, all methods showed similar categoric...
