Abstract
Quaternized polymers mimicking the antimicrobial peptides were created by tuning the side-chain amphiphilicity using a first-time approach of post-functionalization. They displayed excellent efficacy against pathogenic bacteria even in human plasma and membrane disruptive mode of action. The optimized polymers and degraded products were non-hemolytic.Entities:
