Colistin susceptibility among multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacilli isolated from Tertiary hospital in Egypt
Colistin is considered as the last resort for treatment of bacterial infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli (GNB). Colistin resistance can increase due to the spread of plasmid-borne mcr-1 gene. This study aimed to determine colistin susceptibility and to detect the presen...
