Synthesis of Supramolecular Alginate-based Polyurethanes and investigation of their antibacterial activity

Alginate-based Cationic Polyurethanes are supramolecular polymers which show a broad range properties such as improved mechanical properties, self-healing and antibacterial activity. The presence of ammonium salts because of their cationic nature can disrupt the bacteria s wall and cause to death of them. Here, we demonstrate that how Alginate-based Polyurethanes can show antibacterial activity as a supramolecular material.
