Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Colistin, one of the last-line treatment options for carbapenem-resistant microorganisms, presents challenges in determining its antimicrobial susceptibility. This study aims to compare colistin broth disk elution (CBDE), modified CBDE (mCBDE), the colistin agar test (CAT), and rapid polymyxin NP (RPNP) tests with the reference broth microdilution (BMD) in determining colistin susceptibility of 116...
