Bacteriocins and Antimicrobial Peptides

AgriBiotix offers peptides and antimicrobial peptides for research purposes. Our biotechnology firm is committed to providing high-quality products that meet the needs of researchers looking to advance their studies in various fields. Explore our range of peptides for your research needs today!

What they are
Bacteriocins and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small, natural proteins produced by beneficial microbes. They can act with high specificity (bacteriocins) or broader spectrum (AMPs) to inhibit target bacteria, reduce biofilms, and support a healthier microbial balance. Because they are biodegradable and residue-free, they are attractive tools across agriculture, veterinary medicine, aquaculture, and feed applications.

Why they matter

• Targeted suppression of problem microbes without broadly disrupting beneficial communities

• Potential to reduce reliance on conventional chemistries

• Flexible integration into water, surface, substrate, or feed workflows

• Suitable for greenhouse/hydroponics, hatcheries, barns, and processing environments

Product Highlights

Micrococcin P1
Macrocyclic peptide with broad activity against Gram-positive bacteria.

Garvicin KS (garKS)
GarKS is a multipeptide bacteriocin composed of three small, similar peptides (32–34 amino acids). It shows potent activity against many pathogenic Gram-positive bacteria (Listeria, Enterococcus, Bacillus, and Staphylococcus), representing strong potential for antimicrobial applications.

Enterocin K1 (EntK1)
The leaderless bacteriocin Enterocin K1 is highly potent against Enterococcus faecium.

Enterocin hybrid (H1)
Hybrid bacteriocin with activity against vancomycin-resistant E. faecium and Staphylococcus haemolyticus.
