Distribution of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid in infected animals and efficacy against experimental infections.

abstract：:Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections represent a serious threat to worldwide health. Proline-rich antimicrobial peptides (PR-AMPs), a particular group of peptide antibiotics, have demonstrated in vitro activity against P. aeruginosa strains. Here we show that the mammalian PR-AMP Bac7(1-35) is active against some multidr...
