Facially amphiphilic polyionene biocidal polymers derived from lithocholic acid

Facially amphiphilic polyionene biocidal polymers derived from lithocholic acid

Bacterial infections have become a global issue that requires urgent attention, particularly regarding to emergence of multidrug resistant bacteria. We developed quaternary amine-containing antimicrobial poly(bile acid)s that contain a hydrophobic core of lithocholic acid in the main-chain. Interest...
