Design and self-assembly of guanidinium-functionalized polycarbonates for increased selectivity towards pathogenic bacteria
Guanidinium-functionalized amphiphilic polycarbonates have recently been proven to be effective in treating infections caused by multidrug resistant bacteria. These positively charged polymers are able to electrostatically interact with the negatively charged microbial membrane, before translocating...
