The invention relates to the technical field of
biology, and particularly discloses an
antibacterial peptide and an extraction method and application thereof.The extraction method includes the steps that
cotton bollworm living bodies are quick-frozen, and after the
cotton bollworm living bodies are frozen, the frozen
cotton bollworm living bodies are transferred to freeze-
drying equipment to be freeze-dried; crushing the freeze-dried cotton
bollworm bodies to obtain cotton
bollworm body
powder; extracting the cotton
bollworm body
powder by using an extracting agent added with a
hydrolase inhibitor; carrying out suction
filtration on the mixture, washing a
filter cake with an extracting agent after suction
filtration, and collecting filtrate; weighing the collected filtrate, adding
ammonium sulfate,
polyethylene glycol PEG400 and
ethanol, and then stirring; after suction
filtration,
ammonium sulfate, PEG400 and
ethanol are removed from an obtained filtrate mixture through
nanofiltration membrane filtration equipment, and the
antibacterial peptide is retained in the filtrate; and freeze-
drying the filtrate to obtain the powdery cotton bollworm
antibacterial peptide. The method is simple in process and easy to operate and control, the extraction time, manpower and equipment cost are remarkably reduced, and industrial
mass production can be achieved.
