Overview of the antimicrobial activity of 696 Cap18 derivatives.

Antimicrobial activity of purified Cap18 derivatives against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

Hemolytic activity against horse erythrocytes, calculated hydrophobicity, hydrophobic moment and net charge of Cap18 and Cap18 derivatives.

Due to the rapid emergence of resistance to classical antibiotics, novel antimicrobial compounds are needed. It is desirable to selectively kill pathogenic bacteria without...

Antimicrobial activity of Cap18 and selected antibiotics.

Unfavorable amino acid substitutions of Cap18 leading to increased hemolytic activity against horse erythrocytes.

Unfavorable amino acid substitutions in Cap18 based on MIC values of Cap18 derivatives for A. salmonicida, Y. ruckeri, L. lactis and S. Typhimurium leading to a reduced...
