Improving the antimicrobial efficacy against resistant Staphylococcus aureus by a combined use of conjugated oligoelectrolytes.
Two membrane-intercalating conjugated oligoelectrolytes (COEs), namely COE-D8 and COE-S6, were combined to achieve enhanced antimicrobial efficacy. COE-D8 has a shorter molecular length than COE-S6 and is typical of effective antimicrobial COE molecules, presumably due to its prominent membrane disr...
