摘要: Several cationic polymers exhibit a useful antimicrobial property, however the structure–activity relationship still requires more complete investigation. The main objective of this work is comparison between activity and toxicity free immobilized poly (diallyldimethylammonium) chloride (PDDA) in biocompatible (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) nanoparticles (NPs). NPs synthesis by emulsion polymerization performed over range [PDDA] at two methylmethacrylate (MMA) concentrations. PMMA/PDDA dispersions are characterized dynamic light-scattering for sizing, polydispersity zeta-potential analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), plating plus colony forming unities (CFU) counting determination minimal microbicidal concentrations (MMC) against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus Candida albicans hemolysis evaluation mammalian erythrocytes. There high colloidal stability [PDDA]. diverse microorganisms reduces cell viability eight-logs (E. coli), seven-logs (S. aureus) or two-logs (C. albicans). completely kill E. coli that innocuous to Free PDDA higher than one observed NPs. no induced-hemolysis MMC contrast hemolytic effect Hemolysis 15 % S. C. albicans. mobility polymer determines its access inner layers wall membrane, major sites action. freedom does matter determining low absence hemolysis.
