A Shape‐Adaptive, Antibacterial‐Coating of Immobilized Quaternary‐Ammonium Compounds Tethered on Hyperbranched Polyurea and its Mechanism of Action
Lia A. T. W. Asri,Mihaela Crismaru,Steven Roest,Yun Chen,Oleksii Ivashenko,Petra Rudolf,Joerg C. Tiller,Henny C. van der Mei,Ton Loontjens,Ton Loontjens,Henk J. Busscher +10 more
TL;DR: Preparing a shape‐adaptive, contact‐killing coating by tethering quaternary‐ammonium‐compounds onto hyperbranched polyurea coatings, able to kill adhering bacteria by partially enveloping them, which causes removal of membrane lipids and eventually lead to bacterial death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymatic Ring-Opening Polymerization and Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization from a Bifunctional Initiator
TL;DR: Palm et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the role of the pulisher's pulpisher's determination (pulisher's PDF) in the development of the Bifuctional Iniator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of methods to evaluate bacterial contact-killing materials
Marieke van de Lagemaat,Arjen Grotenhuis,Betsy van de Belt-Gritter,Steven Roest,Ton Loontjens,Henk J. Busscher,Henny C. van der Mei,Yijin Ren +7 more
TL;DR: Three out of five methods compared, including an established ASTM, are unsuitable for evaluating bacterial contact-killing surfaces and methods found suitable should be used in combination with a zone-of-inhibition-assay to establish absence of antimicrobial leaching, potentially interfering with contact- killing.
Journal ArticleDOI
The action of chain extenders in nylon‐6, PET, and model compounds
TL;DR: In this article, the action of two complementary chain extenders is studied in model systems as well as in poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and nylon-6.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modification with alkyl chains and the influence on thermal and mechanical properties of aromatic hyperbranched polyesters
TL;DR: In this paper, all-aromatic hyperbranched polyesters with hydroxy endgroups were functionalized with aliphatic n-alkyl carboxylic acids and the resulting, partially amphiphilic polymers were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry.
