Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Antimicrobial Peptides to Better Predict Efficacy

Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Antimicrobial Peptides to Better Predict Efficacy

During the development of antimicrobial peptides (AMP) as potential therapeutics, antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) stands as an essential part of the process in identification and optimisation of candidate AMP. Standard methods for AST, developed almost 60 years ago for testing conventiona...
