Perm scientists have developed an effective disinfectant against bacteria against antibiotic-resistant microorganisms. This was reported in a press release on the website Godnauki.rf. Researchers have proposed using the antibacterial compound “CA” based on isoquinoline in conjunction with a low molecular weight cationic peptide of bacterial origin – hominine. “CA” has a pronounced bactericidal effect and reduces the “adhesion” of bacteria to surrounding surfaces by 50 percent. The combination with hominine significantly increases the effectiveness, while reducing the toxicity of both drugs.
