First Report of the mcr-1 colistin Resistance Gene Identified in Escherichia coli Isolated from a Clinical Sample in Naples in 2020

2020-12-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The emergence of a novel plasmid-mediated colistin resistance mechanism, encoded by the mcr-1 gene, represents a major public health concern. The mechanism of resistance to colistin, mediated by plasmids, is a serious problem, both for its ability to be transferred to other species, and for infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative, in which colistin is used as an antimicrobial...
