Key Results

Key results from the Testing

  • The StarCores we have obtained show antimicrobial activity.
  • 8 out of the 10 constructs showed antimicrobial activity towards E. coli while 9 out of the 10 constructs displayed antimicrobial potential towards B. subtilis.
  • The top performing StarCore was the Ferritin-Alyteserin fusion, with an activity almost 10 times higher than that of the control. Some StarCores exhibited species-specific killing, being particularly active against E. coli.
  • StarCores of varying geometry displayed similar MIC values.
  • There was no clear correlation between the geometry of the StarCores and their antimicrobial activity, indicating a non-specific mechanism of action.
