Description
Kunitzin-RE is an amphibian-derived bioactivity peptide, is regarded as a potential antimicrobial candidate. However, its antimicrobial properties were unsatisfactory. W8 (AARIILRWRFR) significantly broadened the antimicrobial spectrum and showed the highest antimicrobial activity (GMall = 2.48 μM) against all the fungi and bacteria tested. Additionally, W8 showed high cell selectivity and salt tolerance in vitro, whereas it showed high effectiveness against mice keratitis cause by infection by C. albicans 2.2086. Additionally, it also had obviously lipopolysaccharide-binding ability and a potent membrane-disruptive mechanism.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
