Genetic Characterisation of Colistin Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates From North India

BackgroundIncreasing use of colistin has led to the world-wide emergence of mobile colistin resistant gene (mcr). The present study aimed to identify and characterise mcr and other drug-resistant genes in colistin resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates.MethodsTwenty-two colistin resistant...
