Bactenecin vs Phylloseptin

Bactenecin vs Phylloseptin — mechanism, half-life, dosing, and research status compared. Which is right for your protocol?

Bactenecin
Antimicrobial Peptide

Bactenecins are a diverse family of antimicrobial peptides from bovine neutrophil granules. The family includes both the small cyclic dodecapeptide Bac1 (with one disulfide bond) and the larger linear proline-rich Bac5 and Bac7....

Phylloseptin
Antimicrobial Peptide

Phylloseptins are a family of short, C-terminally amidated alpha-helical antimicrobial peptides isolated from the skin secretions of South American Phyllomedusa frogs. Unlike the related dermaseptins from the same genus, phylloseptins are shorter (19 residues) and show a distinct...
