Antibacterial activity of new peptides from barbel protein hydrolysates and mode of action via a membrane damage mechanism against Listeria monocytogenes

There is great interest in the development of antimicrobial peptides as a potentially novel class of antimicrobial agents. In this study we evaluated the mode of action of new peptides (Gly-Val-His, Trp-His-Arg, Trp-His-Phe, Pro-Pro-Ser-Ser, Ala-Ala-Ala-Leu, Ala-Ala-Gly-Gly-Val, Ala-Ala-Val-Lys-Met,...
