Table 3 Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC, mg/l) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC mg/l) of CSA-13, CSA-131, LL-37, MET and these agents functionalized on magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) and MNP against tested anaerobic strains (Brucella broth with no supplements – vitamin K1, hemin nor sheep blood)

From: Anaerobic bacteria growth in the presence of cathelicidin LL-37 and selected ceragenins delivered as magnetic nanoparticles cargo
