“…However, the other polymer microparticles, PSPMA‐Cl and PSPMA‐NH 2 showed relative increase in the antimicrobial activity compared to PSPMA and this could be attributed to the introduction of chloride and amino surface groups unto PSPMA‐Cl and PSPMA‐NH 2 respectively. Polymethacrylates, polynorbornenes, polycarbonates, polypeptides and polyamides as well other polymer classes are believed to possess variability and adaptability in the properties like morphology, polymer chain chemistry, biodegradability, hydrophobic and cationic surface groups, which can be to achieve desirable antimicrobial activities and low toxicities 56–60 …”

[56][57][58][59][60] Generally, sessile biofilm bacterial cells can resist the presence of antibiotics and very few antibiotics are capable of disrupting and dispersing biofilms and destroying the exopolyssacharide protective sheath and kill the quiescent cells. 61 Biofilms can be formed on abiotic as well as biotic surfaces and the prevention of biofilm formation usually involves creating a hydrophilic and non-fouling surface.…”

“…To check the interaction between the cationic polymer and M.tb cell membrane, secondary poly­(diallylammonium trifluoroacetate) and phenolic glycolipids (similar to the outer membranes of M.tb and Msm) were considered. Noncovalent hydrogen bonding between the polymer and membrane leads to destruction of the organism . This targeting of polymers to M.tb .…”
