Plasmid mediated colistin resistant mcr -1 and co-existence of OXA -48 among Escherichia coli from clinical and poultry isolates: first report from Nepal
ConclusionsThe high prevalence of colistin and carbapenem resistant genes, and their co-existence in plasmid DNA ofE. coli isolates in this study suggests the possible spread to other animal, human and environmental pathogens. Molecular methods in addition to the conventional diagnostics in laboratories can help in early diagnosis, effective management and control of their potential transmission.
