Hemolysis and serum stability. (a) Hemolysis of CAP18-MP(FV) and its mutants on mouse blood cells. Melittin was used as positive control; (b) Serum stability of CAP18-MP(FV) and its mutants. For comparison, H2O stability of the peptides was also evaluated in parallel. Data are expressed as mean±s.d. (n=3). Student’s unpaired t-test was used to compare means between the group treated with the serum or H2O and the group without treatment. **P<0.005; ***P<0.001.
