Abstract
Animals posses a large variety of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that serve as effective components in innate host defenses against microbial infections. These antimicrobial peptides differ in amino acid composition, range of antimicrobial specificities, hemolysis, cytotoxicity and mechanisms of action. This study was designed to evaluate their therapeutic potential of the following six antimicrobial peptides initially found from animals:...
