Screening of antimicrobial activity in venom: Exploring key parameters
毒液抗菌活性筛选：探索关键参数摘要抗生素耐药性日益严峻，严重威胁全球健康，凸显了对新型抗菌剂的迫切需求。毒液越来越多地被认为是具有多种药理作用的生物活性化合物的储存器，已成为近期研究的重点。这项研究评估了使用各种筛选方法评估 185 种毒液对某些革兰氏阳性菌和革兰氏阴性菌（包括大肠杆菌 ATCC 8739、枯草芽孢杆菌 ATCC 6633、铜绿假单胞菌 ATCC 9027 和金黄色葡萄球菌 ATCC 6538P 物种）的抗菌活性，并探讨了环境对结果的影响。此外，该研究还探索了通过 HPLC 从毒液中纯化抗菌分子的可能性。有几种级分对所测试的菌株表现出抗菌活性。我们的结果表明，毒液测量的抗菌功效
