1. Quality c<strong>on</strong>trol of colistin must be performed with both a susceptible QC strain (E. coli ATCC 25922 or P. aeruginosa ATCC<br />

27853) and the colistin resistant E. coli NCTC 13846 (mcr-1 positive).<br />

2. Infecti<strong>on</strong>s caused by wild type isolates (ECOFF 128 mg/L) have been treated with combinati<strong>on</strong>s of fosfomycin and other agents.<br />

A. Use an MIC method.<br />
