In the past few years the increasing incidence of hospital infections with Acinetobacter baumannii, especially in immunocompromised patients, and its proneness to develop multidrug resistance have been raising considerable concern. This study examines the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity of protegrin 1 (PG-1), an antimicrobial peptide from porcine leukocytes, against A. baumannii strains isolated...
The in vitro activity of three polycationic peptides, cecropin A, melittin, and cecropin A-melittin hybrid peptide CA(1-7)M(2-9)NH 2 , alone and in combination with various clinically used antimicrobial agents, was investigated against 32 nosocomial isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. Antimicrobial activities were measured by MIC, MBC and bacterial killing assay. The peptides demonstrated...
