Iseganan is an anti-microbial peptide that is active against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. Iseganan kills a broad-spectrum of bacteria and fungi by attaching to and destroying the integrity of the lipid cell membranes. Iseganan can be used for oral mucositis research[1][2][3].
Iseganan (200 and 400 μg/mL; 24 h) disrupts T. crassiceps cysticerci in vitro[3].
Iseganan (intraperitoneal injection; 200 and 400 μg per mouse; once) shows anti-parasite activity in T. crassiceps murine cysticercosis model[3].
