Construction of antibacterial adhesion surfaces based on bioinspired borneol-containing glycopolymers

Abstract

Preparation of antibacterial coating materials is considered an effective strategy to prevent medical device-related infections. In the present study, by combining 2-lactobionamidoethyl methacrylamide with a unique structure borneol compound, new...

Dual Coordination between Stereochemistry and Cations Endows Polyethylene Terephthalate Fabrics with Diversiform Antimicrobial Abilities for Attack and Defense

“…Recently, stereochemical antiadhesion strategies have attracted widespread interest, of which borneol with stereochemical structures is a representative monomer. − It has been reported that the synergistic effect of borneol and quaternary ammonium salts, fluoropolymers, zwitterions, and sugar-containing polymers can impart excellent antibacterial and antifouling properties to the materials. However, since these coatings are not bactericidal, some passive adhesion of pathogenic bacteria is inevitable.…”
