MIC for different bacterial strains with different agents

Agent	VH1000	JCW154	MSG192	MG1655	JCW10	SM7	MDG196
MM-CH copolymer (μg/mL)	25	25	25	25	25	25	25
MM homopolymer (μg/mL)	31	31	31	31	31	31	31
LL-37 (μM)	4	4	4	4	4	4	4
Cecropin A (μM)	2	2	2	2	2	2	2
DM-DMCP copolymer (μg/mL)	12.5	12.5	12.5	12.5	12.5	–	–
DM-DMCH copolymer (μg/mL)	12.5	12.5	12.5	12.5	12.5	–	–

Note that MIC is measured in μΜ for the two chemically defined AMPs, but in μg/mL for the polymers, which lack a well-defined molecular weight. From the known molecular weights of the natural AMPs, for LL-37 we can convert MIC = 4 μM = 18 μg/mL; for cecropin A, MIC = 2 μM = 8 μg/mL. When expressed in μg/mL, all the MIC values lie in a fairly narrow range from 8 to 31 μg/mL.
