PhD students, Lindsay Lozeau and Todd Alexander from prof. Terri Camesano’s lab are co-first authors on a new manuscript that was published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry B, (September 19, 2015) Proposed Mechanisms of Tethered Antimicrobial Peptide Chrysophsin-1 as a Function of Tether Length Using QCM-D.
The team studied the binding properties of the antimicrobial peptide chrysophsin-1, which represents an alternative antibiotic that can be applied to biomaterial surfaces.
