Abstract

There have been several attempts toward synthesis and design of biomimetic antimicrobial polymers. Many cationic antimicrobial polymers have been proposed sofar to act in a manner similar to membrane-active antimicrobial peptides, such as magainin.A literature search indicates that there are different synthesis strategies and polymers for this purpose, methacrylate-based copolymers, phenylene ethynylenes, polynorbornene by-products, amphiphilc arylamide polymers.In this chapter, the basic principles and recent developments of polymeric antimicrobials has been reviewed, along with a mechanistic approach to better understand the role of this class of materials in different applications. © 2020 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston.
