Bottlebrush polymers (BBPs) have emerged as intriguing class of materials for an array of
applications, including supersoft elastomers, organic optoelectronics, templates for crafting …

One primary mechanism for bacteria developing resistance is frequent exposure to
antibiotics. Nanoantibiotics (nAbts) is one of the strategies being explored to counteract the …

To dissect the antibiotic role of nanostructures from chemical moieties belligerent to both
bacterial and mammalian cells, here we show the antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity of …

Self-assembled polymer nanoparticles are promising antibacterials, with nonspherical
morphologies of particular interest as recent work has demonstrated enhanced antibacterial …

As we are on the cusp of the “post-antibiotic” era due to rapid spread of drug resistant
bacteria, there is an urgent need for new antimicrobials that are not susceptible to bacterial …

Antimicrobial resistance is an increasingly serious challenge for public health and could
result in dramatic negative consequences for the health care sector during the next decades …

The one-pot synthesis of antimicrobial bottle brush copolymers is presented. Reversible
addition–fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization is used for the production of …

Antimicrobial polymers are a promising alternative to conventional antibiotics in the fight
against antimicrobial resistance. Cationic bottle brush copolymers have shown to be …

Cationically charged bottlebrush copolymers were produced by hydrolysis of poly (2-ethyl-2-
oxazoline)(PEtOx). The cationic ring-opening polymerization of EtOx was initiated using a …

Herein we report the synthesis of ternary statistical methacrylate copolymers comprising
cationic ammonium (amino-ethyl methacrylate: AEMA), carboxylic acid (propanoic acid …
