The rapid emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens has evolved into a global health
problem as current treatment options are failing for infections caused by pan-resistant …

Emerging issues of Antibiotic drug resistance have increased the mortality cases all around
the world. To deal with the situation natural antimicrobial peptide (AMP) replaces the classic …

In view of the fast depleting armamentarium of drugs against significant pathogens, like

Anti-biofilm peptides are a subset of antimicrobial peptides and represent promising broad-
spectrum agents for the treatment of bacterial biofilms, though some display host toxicity in …

Abstract Development of new antibiotics is declining whereas antibiotic resistance is rising,
heralding a post-antibiotic era. Antimicrobial peptides such as gramicidin S (GS), exclusively …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are found virtually in every living organism providing an
immediate defence against pathogen invasion and constitute a challenging opportunity to …
