Enhanced Antibacterial Activity of Dermaseptin through Its Immobilization on Alginate Nanoparticles—Effects of Menthol and Lactic Acid on Its Potentialization
Dermaseptin B2 (DRS-B2) is an antimicrobial peptide secreted by <i>Phyllomedusa bicolor</i>, which is an Amazonian tree frog. Here, we show that the adsorption of DRS-B2 on alginate nanoparticles (Alg NPs) results in a formulation (Alg NPs + DRS-B2) with a remarkable antibacterial activi...
