Abstract

During a Brazilian multicentric antimicrobial resistance surveillance study, colistin resistance was investigated in 4,620 Enterobacteriaceae isolated from human, animal, food and environmental samples collected from 2000 to 2016. We present evidence that -positive has been emerging in South America since at least 2012, supporting a previous report on the possible acquisition of -harbouring by European travellers visiting Latin American countries.
