Surveillance and Genomic Characterisation of Colistin-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria in the Drains of High-Risk Hospital Units

ABSTRACT: Objective: The health care water environment, including sinks and drainage systems, can be a long-term reservoir of nosocomial pathogens. In this study, we aimed to investigate the presence of colistin-resistant Gram-negative (ColR-GN) bacteria in humid compartments of high-risk hospital...
