    Citation Excerpt :

    Antimicrobial peptides are considered a promising solution to overcome the resistance to antibiotics in bacteria [1–3]. AMPs are a broad & diverse range of peptides that kill wide variety of microbes without toxicity to the host eukaryotic cell [4–8]. The mode of action adapted by many AMPs involves the disruption of bacterial membranes.
