Colistin resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in humans and backyard animals in Ecuador
Openalex
Resumen
Despite a low prevalence of phenotypic resistance to colistin, the high prevalence of the <i>mcr-1</i> gene in <i>E. coli</i> is of concern. Ecuador's ban on using colistin in animal husbandry must be enforced, and continual monitoring of the situation should be implemented.
