Colistin and polymyxin B remain part of the last line of antibiotics for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, such as carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. Current joint EUCAST-CLSI recommendations are for broth microdilution (BMD) to be performed for MIC testing of colistin. Commercial susceptibility testing methods were evaluated and compared against the reference BMD, using a susceptibility breakpoint of 90% was achieved for Sensititre (colistin Spearman's rho = 0.863, and polymyxin B Spearman's rho = 0.877) and Vitek 2 (polymyxin B [only] Spearman's rho = 0.8917). Although a positive MIC correlation (Spearman's rho = 0.873) with the reference method was achieved for colistin testing with Vitek 2, categorical agreement was 2 mg/liter, and polymyxin MICs for 17 of them were >2 mg/liter by broth microdilution. The use of a lower breakpoint of
