About this item
Antimicrobial peptides are produced by plants and most organisms throughout the animal kingdom including humans. Antimicrobial peptides protect against a broad range of infectious agents, as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. The amphibian skin is an especially rich source of antimicrobial peptides. See also the product families: Hepcidins LL-37 and Fragments Tuftsin and Analogs (subfamily).
Bactenecin, a cyclic cationic dodecapeptide, was isolated from bovine neutrophil granules. Bactenecin exhibits a remarkable antibacterial activity in vitro which is comparable to that of the defensins.
