Abstract excerpt
Antibiotic resistance is a growing public health concern. In this context, there is an urgent need of alternative antimicrobial agents effective towards multidrug-resistant bacteria. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are naturally occurring peptides, part of the first antimicrobial line of defence of a wide variety of organisms. AMPs were identified as a promising alternative to classical antibiotics with a low potent...
