Polydopamine Linking Substrate for AMPs: Characterisation and Stability on Ti6Al4V

Polydopamine Linking Substrate for AMPs: Characterisation and Stability on Ti6Al4V

Infections are common complications in joint replacement surgeries. Eradicated infections can lead to implant failure. In this paper, analogues of the peptide KR-12 derived from the human cathelicidin LL-37 were designed, synthesised, and characterised. The designed antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) wer...
