Characterization of resistance mechanisms of Enterobacter cloacae Complex co-resistant to carbapenem and colistin

Abstract Background The emergence of carbapenem-resistant and colistin-resistant ECC pose a huge challenge to infection control. The purpose of this study was to clarify the mechanism of the carbapenems and colistin co-resistance in Enterobacter cloacae Complex (ECC) strains. Results This study show...
