“…To date, the precise bactericidal mechanism of the action of QHSs is unknown, but the main hypothesis-meeting consensus proposes the adsorption of the cationic head group onto the negatively charged bacterial outer layers, followed by the diffusion of the hydrophobic alkyl chains through the lipid bilayer, provoking disruption and loss of membrane integrity. This two-step mechanism assumes an accurate hydrophobic/hydrophilic balance and supports the results reported herein and the “cut-off” effect [ 4 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 ].…”

“…In recent years, ionic liquid have enjoyed more and more interest, both in research and in practical applications. Their various aspects are discussed, such as antimicrobial properties [8,10,42,46] used in histopathologic diagnostics [47], in paper protection [6] and in wood preservation [48]. In the presented research, ionic liquids were used as an additive to paper to neutralise acid paper and as antifungal compounds.…”

“…Values of the latter parameter-MBC/MFC-refer to the lowest concentration of the antimicrobial agents required to reduce the viability of 99% microorganisms. In research on the antimicrobial activity of ionic liquids, these two parameters are determined most frequently, as reported in references [8,10,[40][41][42][43]. Primary research methods used to determine MIC/MBC/MFC values include dilution tests and agar diffusion tests [10,44].…”
