Characterisation of colistin resistance in Gram-negative microbiota of pregnant women and neonates in Nigeria

14 Mar 2024

Abstract excerpt

A mobile colistin resistance gene mcr was first reported in 2016 in China and has since been found with increasing prevalence across South-East Asia. Here we survey the presence of mcr genes in 4907 rectal swabs from mothers and neonates from three hospital sites across Nigeria; a country with limited availability or history of colistin use clinically. Forty mother and seven neonatal swabs carried mcr genes in a...
