Production, characterization, and elucidation of structure-function relationship of lactoferricin and other peptides derived from food-grade bovine lactoferrin

Lactoferricin (Lfcin), a cationic antimicrobial peptide, was purified by peptic digestion of food grade bovine lactoferrin (LF) followed by fractionation on an industrial grade cation exchange resin with stepwise salt gradient elution. A 2-step process using competitive displacement cation exchange...
