In Vitro Activities of Designed Antimicrobial Peptides against Multidrug-Resistant Cystic Fibrosis Pathogens
1 Jun 1999
Abstract excerpt
The emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens renders antibiotics ineffective in the treatment of lung infections in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Designed antimicrobial peptides (DAPs) are laboratory-synthesized peptide antibiotics that demonstrate a wide spectrum of antibacterial activity. Optimal conditions for susceptibility testing of these peptides have not yet been established. Medium composition is...
