“…The hypothesised mode of action for these SSAs include selective membrane coordination and disruption. 23 Furthermore, SSAs have been shown to: (i) act as (potential) drug delivery systems; 24,25 (ii) enhance the activity of commonly used antimicrobials including; novobiocin and rifampicin against a variety of bacteria such as the ESKAPE pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa; 26,27 (iii) enhance the activity of cisplatin against ovarian cancer cells; 28 and (iv) exhibit a druggable profile when administered intravenously to mice. 23 In general, the anionic portion of an SSA is known to selfassociate, through the formation of (thio)urea-anion intermolecular hydrogen bonds, to form anionic dimers in the solid state (Fig.…”
