Biosafety Evaluation and Quantitative Determination of Poly(hexamethylene biguanide) (PHMB) Coated on Cellulosic Fabrics by Kubelka-Munk Equation [PDF]
Cellulose, 2021 Abstract It is a challenge to determine the quantity of cationic finishing agents on the surface of cellulosic fabrics. Herein, we report a direct and feasible method by Kubelka-Munk equation to quantify the cationic poly (hexamethylene biguanide) hydrochloride (PHMB) adsorbed onto cotton fabrics based on the principle of formation of a stable ...

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