The Ib-M6 peptide has antibacterial activity against non-pathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> K-12 strain. The first part of this study determines the antibacterial activity of Ib-M6 against fourteen pathogenic strains of <i>E. coli</i> O157:H7. Susceptibility assay showed that Ib-M6 had values of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) lower than streptomycin, used as a reference antibiotic. Moreover, to predict the possible interaction between Ib-M6 and outer membrane components of <i>E. coli</i> ...[more]
