Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing for Colistin: Extended Application of Novel Quantitative and Morphologic Assay Using Scanning Electron Microscopy

Background. Colistin (Polymyxin E) has reemerged in the treatment of MDR Gram-negative infections. Traditional Colistin AST methods have long turnaround times and are cumbersome for routine use. We present a SEM-AST technique enabling rapid detection of Colistin resistance through direct observation...
