Peptide antimycotics, termed pseudomycins, display broad spectrum antibiotic activity, and in particular are highly effective, non-toxic antibiotics against fungal pathogens of human and animal disease. The peptide antimycotics (pseudomycins) may be used in the treatment of the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. Also disclosed is a method of purification and isolation, including characterization, of the pseudomycins. |
