Facile preparation and antibacterial properties of cationic polymers derived from 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate

Abstract

One kind of polymeric quaternary ammonium salts derived from dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate are synthesised and their antibacterial efficacy is evaluated, indicating that the antibacterial efficacy is greatly enhanced after polymerisation and the mechanism of this effect is clarified by zeta potential tests, SEM and protein leakage measurements.
