Comparative Evaluation of Rapid Polymyxin Nordmann-Poirel Test and VITEK-2 for Colistin Resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae

Comparative Evaluation of Rapid Polymyxin Nordmann-Poirel Test and VITEK-2 for Colistin Resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae

ABSTRACT Introduction: Escherichia coli (E.coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pneumoniae) are the most common organisms isolated from clinical specimens. Increasing Multi-Drug Resistance (MDR) in these Gram-negative organisms has caused considerable therapeutic challenges in clinical practice. This...
