New study on tethered antimicrobial peptides published in Journal of Physical Chemistry B
Two PhD students in the Camesano lab, Lindsay Lozeau and Todd Alexander, are co-first authors on a new manuscript that will be published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 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.
