Mechanism of bactericidal and fungicidal activities of textiles covalently modified with alkylated polyethylenimine
Abstract
Our previous studies have led to a novel “nonrelease” approach to making materials bactericidal by covalently attaching certain moderately hydrophobic polycations to their surfaces. In the present work, this strategy is extended beyond the heretofore‐used nonporous materials to include common woven textiles (cotton, wool, nylon, and polyester). Pieces of such cloths derivatized with N‐hexylated+methylated high‐molecular‐weight polyethylenimine (PEI) are strongly bactericidal against several airborne Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria. In contrast, the immobilized and N‐alkylated PEIs of low molecular weight have only a weak, if any, bactericidal activity. These findings support a mechanism of the antibacterial action whereby high‐molecular‐weight and hydrophobic polycationic chains penetrate bacterial cell membranes/walls and fatally damage them. The bactericidal textiles prepared herein are lethal not only to pathogenic bacteria but to fungi as well. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 83: 168–172, 2003.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
