Experiments were conducted with polymyxin B and two Klebsiella pneumonia isogenic strains (the wild type, KP_WT, and its transconjugant carrying the mobile colistin resistance gene, KP_MCR-1) to demonstrate that conducting two consecutive time-kill experiments (sequential TK) represents a simple approach to discriminate between pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics models with two heterogeneous subpopulations or adaptive resistance.
