Number of citation found in pubmed between 1951 and 2011 using key words «colistin» and «colistin resistance

7 Objectives Objective: To decipher mechanisms of colistin resistance in Gram negative bacteria by different approaches: Genomic comparative analysis Phenotypic tests Part I: Identify the molecular support of colistin resistance in intrinsically resistant bacteria: Project 1 : Comparison of a Proteus vulgaris susceptible to colistin strain with a resistant one. Project 2 : Comparison of a Serratia marcescens susceptible to colistin with a resistant to colistin, and by in vitro tests Part II: Identify the molecular support of colistin resistance in Enterobacteriaceae. Project 3 : Identify the molecular support of colistin resistance Enterobacteriaceae isolated in clinical samples at University Hospitals of Marseille

8 Objectives In Algeria : Isolation from a clinical sample (pus) of a Proteus vulgaris colistin-susceptible isolate along with a colistin-resistant P. mirabilis Isolation from a clinical sample (urine) of a Serratia marcescens colistin resistant isolate.
