Colistin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2014
Increasing use of colistin for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections has led to the emergence of colistin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae in several countries worldwide, including Europe (especially Greece), and colistin resistance rates are continually increasing.

Colistin use and colistin resistance in bacteria from animals

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2016
Colistin has been used in veterinary medicine for decades, mainly for the prevention and treatment of Enterobacteriaceae infections. However, data regarding colistin resistance in bacteria from animals and food of animal origin are relatively scarce, partly because there are methodological difficulties hampering the analysis of susceptibility to ...

Performance evaluation of colistin rapid NP test for detection of colistin resistance in colistin resistant Enterobacterales

Medical Journal Armed Forces India
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) have become a global threat, with colistin being the last resort for treatment. CLSI and EUCAST recommend broth microdilution (BMD) as the reference method for colistin susceptibility testing. Nordmann and Poirel have developed a simple and rapid Polymyxin NP test as an alternative to BMD for screening of ...

Colistin, mechanisms and prevalence of resistance

Current Medical Research and Opinion, 2015
Infections caused by multi-drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, particularly Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae, that cause nosocomial infections, represent a growing problem worldwide. The rapid increase in the prevalence of Gram-negative pathogens that are resistant to fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides as ...

The surveillance of colistin resistance and mobilized colistin resistance genes in multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolated in Japan

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2022
The plasmid-mediated bacterial colistin-resistant gene, mcr, is of global concern in clinical healthcare. However, there are few reports of surveillance for mcr in Japan. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of colistin resistance by identifying nine mcr genes in extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae and ...
