Identification of MCR-8 in clinical isolates from Qatar and evaluation of their antimicrobial profiles
This study aimed to elucidate molecular mechanisms behind the phenotypic colistin resistance seen in 18 bacterial isolates collected from patients at the Hamad General Hospital (Qatar). We believe that this is the first description of MCR-8 in human isolates from Qatar, where previously it has only been observed in animals.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
