Description

Product Description

Pexiganan (MSI-78 Free Base) is a synthetic antimicrobial peptide derived from magainin analogs and is provided in lyophilized powder form for research and laboratory use only. It is characterized by strong amphipathic and cationic properties, making it a widely used model compound in studies of antimicrobial peptide (AMP) activity.

In research settings, Pexiganan is commonly employed to investigate bacterial membrane disruption mechanisms, peptide–membrane interactions, and resistance-related phenomena across a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. Its well-defined amino acid sequence and reproducible physicochemical profile make it suitable for controlled in vitro antimicrobial and biophysical studies.
