Kinetics of the killing activity of HLBD1 and peptide CFAWKRMRKVR. The peptides were incubated with E. coli strain O6K5, S. aureus strain 1800, and C. albicans in BP for 20 h using 200 μg/ml (65.4 μM) of HLBD1 and 100 μg/ml (62.7 μM) of peptide CFAWKRMRKVR. Samples for viable count were collected directly after mixing and at 5, 10, 30, 60, and 120 min. All samples were run in duplicate.
