✦ Synopsis

A method for the screening and isolation of antibacterial peptides from the extracellular insect cuticle using ultrafiltration and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography is presented. Using this method we were able to conveniently isolate cuticular antibacterial peptides belonging to the cecropin family in 1 day. The procedure should facilitate the rapid screening of antibacterial peptides or other bioactive peptides from extracellular matrices. c. 1994 Academic Press, Inc.
