- Abstract:
The dramatic increase in antibiotic-resistant infections has created a pressing need for new and more efficacious antibiotics. An area that has garnered significant clinical interest is the production of cationic antimicrobial peptides and hydrogels. Charge and facial amphilicity in the design allow electrostatic interaction with the bacterial..
