Abstract
⺠Three peptides from the lactoferrin family interact differently with model membranes. ⺠DSC, CD and SAXD results taken together help to differentiate their mode of action. ⺠SAXD shows a different structure for each peptide/membrane assembly. ⺠The peptide's effect on model membranes and C. albicans show remarkable agreement.
