Detection of the plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance gene <i>mcr-1</i> in faecal metagenomes of Dutch travellers

23 Aug 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recently, the first plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance gene, mcr-1, was reported. Colistin is increasingly used as an antibiotic of last resort for the treatment of infections caused by carbapenem-resistant bacteria, which have been rapidly disseminating worldwide in recent years. OBJECTIVES: The reported carriage rate of mcr-1 in humans remains sporadic thus far, except for those reported in...
