Discovery of Novel Caeridins from the Skin Secretion of the Australian White’s Tree Frog, Litoria caerulea

Figure 8

Membrane permeabilisation of S. aureus treated with melittin ( and ), Caeridin-a1 ( and ), Caeridin-1 (512 μM), S5-Caeridin-1 (512 μM), bradykinin (512 μM), and 70% isopropanol for 2 h. The degree of membrane permeability was calculated in comparison with the maximum membrane permeabilisation control (70% isopropanol-treated). The error bars represent SEM of three independent experiments and each experiment with five replicates.
