Lactoferricin Research for Bacterial Infections
An evidence-based overview of research examining Lactoferricin in the context of bacterial infections. This page synthesizes findings from peer-reviewed literature.
Research Summary
Lactoferricin has been extensively studied in vitro for antibacterial activity. Research demonstrates broad-spectrum activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria including E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Bellamy et al., 1992). MIC values typically range from 1-50 ug/mL depending on bacterial strain. However, all therapeutic efficacy data is preclinical.
