AMP Therapeutics - Anti-Microbial Peptide

Leipzig, Germany
AMP Therapeutics GmbH - Anti-Microbial Peptide comprises the first line of defense against infection through the innate immune system. The AMPT portfolio of unique antimicrobial peptides overcomes many of the issues associated with AMPs as anti-bacterial therapeutics, most notably potency, spectrum, stability and toxicity. The unique mechanism of action of these compounds and the low rate of resistance development positions these molecules as the next generation of novel anti-bacterials.
