Synergistic antimicrobial compositions and methods for reducing biofilm formation

摘要

The present invention provides novel compositions comprising: (a) a thiol-specific reagent and a cationic polypeptide or (b) a thiol-specific reagent and an iron-sequestering glyocoprotein; and uses thereof for the preparation of devices, and in particular medical devices, susceptible to colonization by biofilm forming bacteria.
