Prevention of urinary catheter-associated infections by coating antimicrobial peptides from crowberry endophytes
Abstract Urinary catheters are extensively used in hospitals, being responsible for about 75% of hospital-acquired infections. In this work, a de novo designed antimicrobial peptide (AMP) Chain201D was studied in the context of urinary catheter-associated infections. Chain201D showed excellent antim...
