Pexiganan (CAS 147664-63-9) is a synthetic antimicrobial peptide with a molecular formula of C119H185N35O24 and a molecular weight of approximately 2414.0 g/mol. This white lyophilized powder has a purity of ≥98% (HPLC) and is stored at -20°C to maintain stability. It is designed for research and pharmaceutical development.
Pexiganan is primarily used as a topical antibacterial agent to treat infections, including diabetic foot ulcers and skin infections caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Its broad-spectrum activity and low resistance potential make it a promising alternative to traditional antibiotics.
Scenario: A patient with a non-healing ulcer infected by Staphylococcus aureus.
Protocol: Pexiganan (2 mg/mL gel) was applied twice daily for 14 days. Results showed a 90% reduction in bacterial load and accelerated wound closure.
Scenario: Second-degree burns with Pseudomonas aeruginosa contamination.
Protocol: Pexiganan-infused dressings were replaced every 24 hours. Infection clearance was achieved within 7 days, preventing systemic spread.
