Cecropin A（Cat No.:R002761）is a naturally occurring antimicrobial peptide originally discovered in the immune system of the cecropia moth, known for its potent activity against a wide range of bacteria, including both Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains. It disrupts bacterial cell membranes, leading to cell lysis without harming mammalian cells, making it a valuable model in developing novel antibiotics. Due to its effectiveness and low risk of resistance, Cecropin A is widely studied in antibacterial research, wound healing, and immune response modulation, offering promise as a therapeutic alternative in infection control.
