Colistin, also known as polymyxin E, is an antibiotic medication used as a last-resort treatment for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections including...

The mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) gene confers plasmid-mediated resistance to colistin, one of a number of last-resort antibiotics for treating Gram-negative...

Polymyxins are antibiotics. Polymyxins B and E (also known as colistin) are used in the treatment of Gram-negative bacterial infections. They work mostly...

carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii. Participants received either sulbactam/durlobactam or colistin (a comparator antibiotic) for up to 14 days. Both treatment arms also received...

digestive problems. Sulfonamides dissolved in drinking water may be used. Colistin can be an effective antibiotic. Roach, N.; Kennerley, R. (2016). "Chinchilla...

agar; it also grows on HBT agar. A selective medium for G. vaginalis is colistin-oxolinic acid blood agar. G. vaginalis is a facultatively anaerobic Gram-variable...

Fluoroquinolones: particularly levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin Polymyxins: Colistin, Polymyxin B Aztreonam (monobactam) Aminoglycosides - particularly tobramycin...

oxidizer. Most strains do not grow on colistin nalidixic acid agar because, although they are resistant to colistin, they are susceptible to quinolones...

gram-negative pathogens in the ICU have invoked the re-emergence of colistin. However, colistin-resistant strains of K. pneumoniae have been reported in ICUs...

countries. China once used colistin (an antibiotic) as growth promoter (subtherapeutic antibiotic use) but discovered a colistin-resistant form of E. coli...

polypeptide chains. Examples of this class include actinomycin, bacitracin, colistin, and polymyxin B. Actinomycin-D has found use in cancer chemotherapy. Most...

two (4%) were resistant to all drugs tested. One antimicrobial agent, colistin (polymyxin E), has been used to treat infections with multidrug-resistant...

Resistance or reduced susceptibility to several antibiotics, such as colistin sulphate, clindamycin and kanamycin A or penicillin has been reported....

meropenem for meningitis caused by Acinetobacter, as an adjunct to imipenem or colistin for neonatal meningitis caused by Streptococcus agalactiae or Listeria...

non-clinical specimens. CNA agar contains antibiotics (nalidixic acid and colistin) that inhibit Gram-negative organisms, aiding in the selective isolation...

fall back on polymyxins, particularly colistin although tetracyclines have shown promise in MDR A. baumannii. Colistin is considered a drug of last resort...

cephalosporins, glycopeptides, macrolides and ketolides, polymyxins including colistin, and quinolones including fluoroqinolones.[citation needed] The European...

Lactobacillus and Pediococcus are intrinsically resistant Polymyxin, also known as colistin, which is added to kill most Gram-negative organisms except Neisseria,...

example in bacitracin; the carboxyl end and a side chain, for example in colistin; or two side chains or more complicated arrangements, for example in alpha-amanitin...

an E. coli "superbug" was identified in the United States resistant to colistin, "the last line of defence" antibiotic. In recent years, even anaerobic...
