Incorporation of hydrophobic component into amphiphilic polycations structure is frequently accompanied by an increase of antimicrobial activity. There is, however, a group of relatively hydrophilic polycations containing quaternary ammonium moieties along mainchain, ionenes, which also display strong antimicrobial and limited hemolytic properties. In this work, an influence of a hydrophobic side group length on antimicrobial mechanism of action is investigated in a series of novel amphiphilic ionenes. High antimicrobial activity was found by determination of min. inhibitory concentration (MIC) and min. bactericidal, and fungicidal concentration (MBC and MFC) in both growth media and a buffer. Biocompatibility was estimated by hemolytic and mammalian cells viability assays. Mechanistic studies were performed using large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) with different lipid composition, as simplified models of cell membranes. The investigated ionenes are potent and selective antimicrobial mols. displaying a decrease of antimicrobial activity correlated with increase of hydrophobicity. Studies using LUVs revealed that the cardiolipin is an essential component responsible for the lipid bilayer permeabilization by investigated ionens. In contrast to relatively hydrophilic ionenes, more hydrophobic polymers showed an ability to stabilize membranes composed of lipids with neg. spontaneous curvature in a certain range of polymer to lipid ratio. The results substantially contribute to the understanding of antimicrobial activity of the investigated class of polymers. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as (2R,9Z)-1-(((2-Aminoethoxy)(hydroxy)phosphoryl)oxy)-3-(palmitoyloxy)propan-2-yl oleate (cas: 26662-94-2Related Products of 26662-94-2).
(2R,9Z)-1-(((2-Aminoethoxy)(hydroxy)phosphoryl)oxy)-3-(palmitoyloxy)propan-2-yl oleate (cas: 26662-94-2) belongs to esters. Esters are widespread in nature and are widely used in industry. In nature, fats are in general triesters derived from glycerol and fatty acids. Esters are responsible for the aroma of many fruits, including apples, durians, pears, bananas, pineapples, and strawberries. Liquid esters of low volatility serve as softening agents for resins and plastics. Esters also include many industrially important polymers. Polymethyl methacrylate is a glass substitute sold under the names Lucite and Plexiglas; polyethylene terephthalate is used as a film (Mylar) and as textile fibres sold as Terylene, Fortrel, and Dacron.Related Products of 26662-94-2
