摘要:
The inventors provide the use of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof to prevent or inhibit spoilage of a foodstuff by a microorganism. Also provided is a method of preventing or inhibiting spoilage of a foodstuff by a microorganism comprising administering to a foodstuff in need thereof an effective amount of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof.
摘要:
The inventors provide the use of a chelating agent and an antimicrobial agent that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism to inhibit the growth of and/or kill a plant pathogenic microorganism on a plant; the use of a chelating agent to increase the activity of an antimicrobial that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism; a method of inhibiting the growth of and/or killing a plant pathogenic microorganism comprising administering to a plant in need thereof a chelating agent and an antimicrobial agent that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism; and a method of increasing the activity of an antimicrobial that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism comprising using said antimicrobial with a chelating agent. Also provided is a composition comprising a chelating agent and an antimicrobial agent that is effective against a plant pathogenic microorganism, use of said composition to inhibit the growth of and/or kill a plant pathogenic microorganism on a plant, and a method of inhibiting the growth of and/or killing a plant pathogenic microorganism comprising administering to a plant in need thereof said composition. Further provided is the use of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof to kill, or inhibit the growth of, a plant pathogenic bacterium on a plant, and a method of killing, or inhibiting the growth of, a plant pathogenic bacterium on a plant, said method comprising administering to said plant a composition comprising an effective amount of an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof.
摘要:
The inventors provide a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof for use in a method of treatment of the human or animal body by therapy or prophylaxis, such as for use in a method of treating or preventing an infection in or on a subject by a microorganism. Also provided is the use of a composition comprising an antimicrobial polypeptide comprising Blad or an active variant thereof to kill, or inhibit the growth of, a microorganism that is pathogenic to a human or an animal at a site that is not on or in the human or animal body.
