Antimicrobial activity of polyelectrolyte-surfactant hydrogels
Original language description
Polyelectrolytes can interact with oppositely charged surfactants and under special conditions can form hydrogels. These hydrogels contain hydrophobic cores which are form from micelle-like nanostructures and due to these hydrophobic core, hydrogels are able to solubilise hydrophobic substances (such as fluorescent probes, drugs) and due to this fact hydrogels can be interesting point of interest for medical applications. Hydrogels combine the behavior of liquids and solids in a soft matter and their final behavior depends on the density of its network or the density of crosslinks connecting the network [1]. Network density and porous microstructure of hydrogels are very important and also affects the diffusion characteristics of hydrogels. This research was focused on testing the antimicrobial activity of the hydrogels which is based on diffusion methods. For this study were used hydrogels which were prepared from cationized dextran (DEAE) and negatively charged surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate (SD
