Abstract excerpt
Background: The dissemination of polymyxin resistance represents a significant threat to public health. Materials & methods: Sequence-based typing was performed by 53 mcr-1 Escherichia coli isolates using fumC/fimH (CH) genes to characterize clones spreading from pig farming. Furthermore, 12 isolates had their whole genome sequenced for phylogenetic study. Results: The isolates were classified into 22 distinct CH...
