Efflux pump inhibitor CCCP to rescue colistin susceptibility in mcr-1 plasmid-mediated colistin-resistant strains and Gram-negative bacteria
12 Apr 2018
Abstract excerpt
Objectives: Efflux in bacteria is a ubiquitous mechanism associated with resistance to antimicrobials agents. Efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) have been developed to inhibit efflux mechanisms and could be a good alternative to reverse colistin resistance, but only CCCP has shown good activity. The aim of our study was to identify CCCP activity in a collection of 93 Gram-negative bacteria with known and unknown...
