Since their initial discovery, 30 years ago, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have been intensely investigated as a possible solution to the increasing problem of drug-resistant bacteria. The interaction of antimicrobial peptides with the cellular membrane of bacteria is the key step of their mechanism of action. Fluorescence spectroscopy can provide...
