Rhamnose Binding Protein as an Anti-Bacterial Agent—Targeting Biofilm of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
More than 80% of infectious bacteria form biofilm, which is a bacterial cell community surrounded by secreted polysaccharides, proteins and glycolipids. Such bacterial superstructure increases resistance to antimicrobials and host defenses. Thus, to control these biofilm-forming pathogenic bacteria requires antimicrobial agents with novel mechanisms or

Scorpine, an anti‐malaria and anti‐bacterial agent purified from scorpion venom [PDF]
A novel peptide, scorpine, was isolated from the venom of the scorpion Pandinus imperator, with anti‐bacterial activity and a potent inhibitory effect on the ookinete (ED50 0.7 μM) and gamete (ED50 10 μM) stages of Plasmodium berghei development. It has 75 amino acids, three disulfide bridges with a molecular mass of 8350 Da.
