What is Epsilon-polylysine?

Chemical properties

from Streptomyces albulus.

The Uses of Epsilon-polylysine

ε-Poly-L-lysine posess antimicrobial action stronger than alpha-Poly-L-lysine. Studies on the mode of action of ε-?PL suggest that adsorption of ε-?PL to the bacterial cell surface plays an important role in its antibacterial activity.
