Abstract

According to the World Health Organization plants are one of the best sources to obtain a huge variety of biologically active compounds. Human population during centuries has used plants and plants extracts in ethno medicine to cure wide range of diseases. In the scope of modern methods of isolation and purification of different plant substances, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) give us the opportunity to have a new ally in the fight with different microbial pathogens. Possible future uses of AMPs derived from plants could be either as a new class of anti-infective medications or as bio-preservatives in foods and beverages.
