Colistin resistance is one of the major threats for global public health, requiring reliable and rapid susceptibility testing methods. The aim of this study was the evaluation of a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS) peak-based assay to distinguish colistin resistant (colR) from susceptible (colS) <i>Escherichia coli</i> strains. To this end, a classifying algorithm model (CAM) was developed, testing three different algorithms: Genetic Algorithm (GA), Supervised Neural Network (SNN) and Quick Class ...[more]
