Table 6.

Rules set induced from lengths of alpha-helices and the chirality of the member residues for minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) level by molarity.

5-a.a.-helix 4-a.a.-right-handed helix	S. epidermidis	4.72 μM -5.23 μM	164/179
5-a.a.-helix 4-a.a.-right-handed helix	S. mutans	10.54 μM –37.81 μM	151/179
8-a.a.-helix 6 or 8-a.a.-right-handed helix	S. mutans	336.5 μM	8/11
