Quantifying nisin adsorption behavior at pendant polyethylene oxide brush layers

Creator:

Dill, Justen K.

Abstract:

A more quantitative understanding of peptide loading and release from polyethylene oxide (PEO) brush layers will provide direction for development of new strategies for drug storage and delivery. The antimicrobial peptide nisin shows potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria including the most prevalent implant-associated pathogens, its mechanism of action minimizes the...
