Whole genome analysis of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli isolate collected from drinking water in Armenia revealed the plasmid-borne mcr-1.1- mediated colistin resistance

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT The rate of polymyxin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae , as well as human and animal infections caused by them, is increasing worldwide, posing a high epidemiological threat since colistin represents a last-resort antibiotic to treat complicated infections. The study of environmental niches, in particular, aquatic ecosystems in terms of genome analysis of inhabiting antimicrobial-resistant (AMR)...
