About this Product
- SKU:
- HY-W250308
- Additional Names:
- Epsilon-polylysine (MW 3800-4200); ε-Polylysine (MW 3800-4200); ε-PL (MW 3800-4200)

- Extra Details:
- Epsilon-polylysine is an antimicrobial peptide that can be produced by bacteria such as Streptomyces. Epsilon-polylysine inhibits the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria; yeasts and molds and is therefore often used as a green food additive and preservative in various food and beverage products. Epsilon-polylysine has a variety of properties; including thermal stability; resistance to acidic conditions; and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. Epsilon-polylysine can be loaded on other materials to form nanoparticles or form nanofiber membranes for targeted delivery to exert sustained antibacterial efficacy. Epsilon-polylysine is also used as a liposome stabilizer[1][2][3][4].
