In this contribution, a novel soluble and antibacterial polymer, O-xanthonyl-chitosan (CTMC-Xan), was synthesized successfully by grafting 1,3-dihydroxy-xanthone (Xan) to the side chains of O-carboxymethyl-N, N, N-trimethyl chitosan (CTMC). The chemical structure and physical properties of the polymer were analyzed by 1H NMR, FT-IR spectra, UV spectra and XRD. The results showed that Xan could covalently bond with the carboxyl groups of CTMC by esterification at a grafting ratio of 9.1%. XRD patterns indicated that CTMC-Xan does not exhibit crystallization. The solubility tests showed that CTMC-Xan was completely dissolved and stable in neutral solution but unstable in acid or basic conditions. Moreover, it was found that the antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) of CTMC-Xan was much stronger than that of Xan and CTMC, and the minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) was 125 μg·mL-1. Due to the enhanced solubility and antibacterial activity, CTMC-Xan could potentially serve as a desirable biomaterial for food and pharmaceutical applications.

D011108 Polymers Compounds formed by the joining of smaller, usually repeating, units linked by covalent bonds. These compounds often form large macromolecules (e.g., BIOPOLYMERS; PLASTICS). Polymer
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
