Title: “Comparison of antimicrobial assays to analyze bioactive low molecular peptides derived from Lucilia sericata maggot secretion.”


The focus was straightforward: how we measure antimicrobial activity directly shapes what we consider “promising.” Different assays, different conclusions—and that matters when identifying real candidates for wound therapy.


The results reinforce the potential of larval secretions as a source of novel low-molecular-weight antimicrobial peptides and compounds worth researching.
