Colistin resistance in carbapenem resistant klebsiella pneumoniae mediated by chromosomal integration of plasmid DNA

ABSTRACT : Here we describe the spread of colistin resistance in clinical isolates of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in Medellín, Colombia. Among 32 isolates collected between 2012 and 2014, 24 showed genetic alterations in mgrB. Nineteen isolates belonged to sequence type 512 (ST512) (o...
