| Abstract | In this study, a series of waterborne biodegradable polyurethanes with antibacterial and biocompatible properties were developed. To obtain these polyurethanes, lysine-derivative gemini quaternary ammonium salt (GQAS) chain extenders with different hydrophobic alkyl chain lengths (named EGn, where n = 8, 12, 16; the hydrophobic alkyl chain length of GQAS) were designed and synthesized. Then, waterborne biodegradable polyurethanes (PCLPUn) were prepared using isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), L-lysine and EGn. The antibacterial activities of these EGn and PCLPUn emulsions were evaluated by a minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) method, and the antibacterial and antifouling functionalities of the PCLPUn film surfaces were confirmed by a contact-active antibacterial and culture-based method using both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The in vitro degradation and cytotoxicity of these obtained polyurethanes were also systematically investigated. These results indicated that the PCLPUn films possessed good antibacterial and antifouling abilities, biodegradability, and good biocompatibility. Notably, PCLPU12 shows the best antibacterial activity and cytocompatibility. Such antibacterial materials could be degraded to non-toxic components, and potentially be widely used in medical and environmental applications, especially as biodegradable coatings of surgical equipment and medical implants. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
