Take a look in the file, colistin is as miscellaneous agents. I hope it helps.

The EUCAST guidelines (v5, 2015-01-01) give an MIC clinical breakpoint of 2 mg/L (S ≤; R >) for Enterobacteriaceae and colistin.

Matthaios Papadimitriou-Olivgeris

In the address below you can find the EUCAST MIC Clinical Breakpoints for all bacteria http://www.eucast.org/clinical_breakpoints/

Monika Pobiega

You can find it in current EUCAST Guidelines.

You can easily find colistin values on EUCAST guidelines :)
