PGLa TFA, a 21-residue peptide, is an antimicrobial peptide. PGLa TFA is a member of the magainin family of antibiotic peptides found in frog skin and its secretions[1].
IC50 Target
Anti-bacteria[1]
体外研究 (In Vitro)
PGLa is a peptide starting with a glycine and ending with a leucine amide[1]. PGLa is bacteriostatic against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria with MIC values of 64 and 32 mg/L against S. aureus and E. coli, respectively[2].
MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Details
Negative (lt;0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2.;;If water fails, add NH4OH (lt;50 μL). 3.;;If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide.
Positive (gt;0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2.;;If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution. 3.;;If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO.
Zero (=0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first. 2.;;For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration.
