Description

Seven researchers review antimicrobial peptides from fish in a 2026 paper. These small proteins are part of the natural immune kit of fish and kill germs broadly with low toxicity. Fish farms lose much stock to disease, and drug resistance makes new tools urgent.

The review covers peptide classes, where they sit in the body, and how they kill germs. It also covers how to extract or build them in the lab. Uses span disease prevention on farms, food preservation, and standing in for antibiotics. Stability in the field, production cost, and rules for use remain open hurdles, the authors note.
