Study of Epigenetic Properties of Poly(HexaMethylene Biguanide) Hydrochloride (PHMB) [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2014
Poly(HexaMethylene Biguanide) hydrochloride (PHMB) CAS No. [32289-58-0] is a particularly effective member of the biguanides antiseptic chemical group, and has been in use since the early fifties in numerous applications. It has been proposed that PHMB be classified as a category 3 carcinogen although PHMB is not genotoxic.

Porous Poly(Hexamethylene Biguanide) Hydrochloride Loaded Silk Fibroin Sponges with Antibacterial Function [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2020
In order to endue silk fibroin (SF) sponges with antibacterial function, positively charged poly(hexamethylene biguanide) hydrochloride (PHMB) was incorporated in SF through electrostatic interaction and by freeze-drying technique. The influence of PHMB on the structure and antibacterial activities of SF sponges was investigated.

The High Potential of ε‐Poly‐l‐Lysine for the Development of Antimicrobial Biomaterials

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 3, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
ε‐poly‐l‐lysine (ε‐PLL) is a natural polypeptide originating from bacteria with strong antifungal and antibacterial properties. ε‐PLL is highly used to develop antimicrobial materials and as an alternative to antibiotics as its mechanism of action reduces the bacterial resistance risk compared with antibiotics.
