TL;DR: An overview of the biological role, classification, and mode of action of AMPs is provided, the opportunities and challenges to develop these peptides for clinical applications are discussed, and the innovative formulation strategies for application are reviewed.
Abstract: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), also known as host defense peptides, are short and generally positively charged peptides found in a wide variety of life forms from microorganisms to humans. Most AMPs have the ability to kill microbial pathogens directly, whereas others act indirectly by modulating the host defense systems. Against a background of rapidly increasing resistance development to conventional antibiotics all over the world, efforts to bring AMPs into clinical use are accelerating. Several AMPs are currently being evaluated in clinical trials as novel anti-infectives, but also as new pharmacological agents to modulate the immune response, promote wound healing, and prevent post-surgical adhesions. In this review, we provide an overview of the biological role, classification, and mode of action of AMPs, discuss the opportunities and challenges to develop these peptides for clinical applications, and review the innovative formulation strategies for application of AMPs.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the challenges for life cycle assessment arising from the complexity of food systems, and recommend research priorities for both scientific development and improvements in practical implementation, including addressing issues related to: the distinction between technosphere and ecosphere; the most appropriate functional unit; the multi-functionality of biological systems; and the modelling of the emissions and how this links with life cycle impact assessment.

TL;DR: The investigation presented here considers only the cases when the continuous flame region is lower than the ceiling height and the maximum excess gas temperature varies as the −5/3 power of the vertical distance between the fire source bottom and tunnel ceiling.
