Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since microorganisms show high resistance to chemical and physical stresses when forming biofilm, inhibition of biofilm formation is important for their effective inactivation. We screened a novel peptide inhibiting biofilm formation of Staphylococcus aureus from α-lactoalbumin glycated by glucose. The peptide without glycation did not show the inhibitory effect. The glycated peptide inhibited the proliferation of S. aureus cells.
