Dermaseptin, a peptide isolated from frog skin, exhibits potent antimicrobial activity against?bacteria,?fungi, and protozoa?at micromolar concentration[1].

Dermaseptin is a polypeptide isolated from frog skin that exhibits potent antimicrobial activity against bacteria, fungi and protozoa.

Dermaseptin is a water-soluble, thermostable, and nonhemolytic peptide endowed with highly potent antimicrobial activity against pathogenic fungi at micromolar concentration.

Dermaseptin is derived from insect antimicrobial peptides; mammalian antimicrobial peptides; amphibian antimicrobial peptides; fish, mollusk and crustacean derived antimicrobial peptides; plant antimicrobial peptides and bacterial antimicrobial peptides.
