USE OF NATRIURETIC PEPTIDES AS ANTIBIOTICALLY EFFECTIVE SUBSTANCES FOR TREATING BACTERIAL INFECTIONS

摘要

The present invention relates to antibiotically active natriuretic peptides for use as antibiotically active preparations prepared using biotechnological and recombinant methods and chemical synthesis. The antibiotically active peptides are referred to as natriubiotics. After chemical peptide synthesis, these natriubiotics can be used as human or veterinary medicaments in a suitable galenic formulation or as food additives.
