Antimicrobial activity of synthetic cationic peptides and lipopeptides derived from human lactoferricin against Pseudomonas aeruginosa planktonic cultures and biofilms

BACKGROUND: Infections by Pseudomonas aeruginosa constitute a serious health threat because this pathogen –particularly when it forms biofilms – can acquire resistance to the majority of conventional antibiotics. This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of synthetic peptides based on LF11, an...
