Antimicrobial Peptides Display Strong Synergy with Vancomycin Against Vancomycin-Resistant <i>E. faecium</i>, <i>S. aureus</i>, and Wild-Type <i>E. coli</i>

Antimicrobial Peptides Display Strong Synergy with Vancomycin Against Vancomycin-Resistant <i>E. faecium</i>, <i>S. aureus</i>, and Wild-Type <i>E. coli</i>

There is an urgent and imminent need to develop new antimicrobials to fight against antibiotic-resistant bacterial and fungal strains. In this study, a checkerboard method was used to evaluate the synergistic effects of the antimicrobial peptide P-113 and its bulky non-nature amino acid substituted...
