Polymeric materials with antimicrobial activity
TL;DR: The state of the art in the field of antimicrobial polymeric systems during the last decade is described in this paper, where a classification of the different materials is carried out dividing basically those synthetic polymers that exhibit antimicrobial activity by themselves; those whose biocidal activity is conferred through their chemical modification; those that incorporate antimicrobial organic compounds with either low or high molecular weight; and those that involve the addition of active inorganic systems.
