MCR-3 and MCR-9 confer species-specific increases in colistin MICs. [PDF]
Microbiology (Reading)For the clinical treatment of infections with Enterobacteriaceae , the development of resistance to last-resort antimicrobials like colistin is of concern, as it limits treatment options. Since 2015, ten families of mobile colistin resistance (

Dissemination of a IncHI2A plasmid co-harboring the mcr-9 and bla<sub>NDM-1</sub> genes in Israeli hospitals. [PDF]
Ann Clin Microbiol AntimicrobThe mcr-9 allele is typically located on IncHI2 type plasmids, but there are only few reports describing the co-occurrence of the blaNDM gene on the same plasmid. Our aims were to describe the spread of an IncHI2A plasmid harboring both the mcr-9 and the blaNDM-1 genes in a multicenter study in Israel.
