Influences of trypsin/pepsin/proteinase K on AMP-17 when used against C. albicans. Fifty μl of the proteases (at a concentration of 1 mg/ml) and 50 μl AMP-17 (at a concentration of 37.5 μg/ml) were mixed in a 96-well plate and placed in a 37°C water bath for 2, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 min. Then, it was subjected to CFU enumeration after being treated with 100 μl of the fungal suspension for 18 hours. PBS was used as a negative control. Compared with PBS control, *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.
