Pexiganan TFA
Pexiganan TFA is an antimicrobial peptide with broad-spectrum bactericidal. Pexiganan TFA disrupts bacterial cell membranes, induces peptidoglycan damage and cell lysis. Pexiganan TFA can be used for the research of bacterial infection.

生物活性
製品説明
体外実験
Pexiganan (1-256 µg/mL; 24 h) TFA exhibits comparable bactericidal activity against planktonic Staphylococcus aureus Z25.2, Pseudomonas aeruginosa Z25.1, and their dual-species cultures[1].
Pexiganan (1-256 µg/mL; 24 h) TFA is more effective at inhibiting and eradicating Staphylococcus aureus Z25.2 biofilms than Pseudomonas aeruginosa Z25.1 or dual-species biofilms[1].
Pexiganan (7-35 μM) TFA binds to purified bovine type I collagen with a dissociation constant of 34.01 μM[3].
Pexiganan (5-80 μg/mL; overnight) TFA inhibits the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus[3].
Pexiganan (40 μg/mL; 0-60 min) TFA rapidly reduces viable counts of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC27853) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC29213) over 60 min, with complete elimination of P. aeruginosa by 60 min[3].
Pexiganan (10-50 μg/mL) TFA exhibits no cytotoxicity toward rat fibroblast cells in in vitro MTT assays[3].

Research Protocol for Infectious Diseases
Infectious-disease experiments test how pathogens interact with host barriers, innate immune receptors, inflammatory signaling, pathogen replication, and tissue injury; pattern-recognition receptors such as TLRs, RIG-I-like receptors, NOD-like receptors, and inflammasomes detect microbial molecules and activate NF-κB, interferon, and cytokine responses. The central hypothesis is that infection severity reflects the balance between pathogen burden and host response: protective inflammation restricts pathogen growth, whereas excessive or mislocalized inflammation contributes to tissue damage and disease phenotype. Unresolved questions include which host pathways are protective versus pathogenic, why some infection models fail to translate to human disease, and which combined readouts best predict clinically relevant infection outcomes.

Protein Extraction
Protein extraction uses physical, chemical or biological methods, such as ultrasonic disruption, salting out, cell lysis, electrophoresis, etc., to destroy the cell membrane structure and to separate the proteins from different components according to their characteristics.
