Use of such molecules had recently led to the emergence of colistin -resistant carbapenemase-producing isolates, leaving only a few therapeutic options for the near future . Here we report the identification of colistin -resistant isolates among a collection carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae and Acinetobacter baumannii isolates. %K Acinetobacter baumannii %K Colistin %K Drug Resistance, Bacterial %K Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections %K Imipenem %K Libya %K beta-Lactamases %~
