Antibacterial activity against a series of potentially pathogenic bacterial strains was evaluated in both liquid and solid matrices using ciprofloxacin (a well-known fluoroquinolone antibiotic) based polymeric systems with pendant cationic charge and zwitterionic units. The ciprofloxacin containing polymeric architecture was designed to incorporate bioactive killing properties of cationic moieties, whereas biopassive activity was regulated by the bacterial cell repelling capacity of the zwitterionic group. tert-Butyl carbamate (Boc)-leucine hydroxyethylmethacrylate (Boc-Leu-HEMA), Boc-ciprofloxacin hydroxyethylmethacrylate (Boc-Cipro-HEMA) and zwitterionic sulphabetaine methacrylate (SBMA) are copolymerized, followed by deprotection of Boc groups from the copolymer under acidic conditions. Boc deprotection resulted in water soluble polymers with cationic charge from the leucine moiety and retained the antibiotics in their active original form. The antibacterial activity of the polymeric system was evaluated against several bacterial species, namely, Escherichia coli (E. coli), Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Vibrio alginolyticus (V. alginolyticus), and Vibrio chemaguriensis Iso1 (V. chemaguriensis), in both liquid and solid matrices. The copolymer displayed significant bactericidal efficacy against non-biofilm forming E. coli and B. subtilis in both liquid and solid matrices. However, the antibacterial effect on biofilm forming V. chemaguriensis was comparatively less prominent in the liquid matrix. Optical microscope images of Gram staining revealed an enhanced surface area of individual cells and chain formation in cells of V. chemaguriensis. The non-cytotoxic profile of the polymer towards mammalian red blood cells (RBCs) and enhanced bactericidal effect in the physiological to basic pH (7.0-9.5) range against potentially pathogenic V. chemaguriensis using a multitude of microscopic techniques hinted toward the need to develop new antibiotics to combat possible clinical infections in the near future.

Self-healing systems that can spontaneously repair their damage would significantly improve the safety and prolong the lifetime of man-made materials. As external energy or healing agents are required in most of the self-healing approaches, non-covalently cross-linked polymeric hydrogels with intrinsic healing nature have attracted much attention recently. We present here a P(AM-co-DMAPS) zwitterionic copolymer based self-healing hydrogel, where AM and DMAPS are acrylamide and 3-((2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl)dimethylammonio)propane-1-sulfonate, respectively. The electrostatic interactions within DMAPS and hydrogen bonding between AM moieties contribute to the physical cross-linking of the polymer chains and self-healing ability of the hydrogel. The reported strategy represents a general and facile route to construct zwitterionic copolymer based self-healable functional hydrogels for potential applications in the field of enhanced oil recovery (EOR).

3-[N-(2-Methacroyloylethyl)-N,N-dimethylamino]propane sulfonate (DMAPS) was synthesized by the ring-opening reaction of 1,3- propanesultone, then electrophilic substitution with 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate in the presence of acetone at 60 °C. 2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate and a little polymerization inhibitor dissolved in acetone was added in three-necked flask, the mixture was heated to 60 °C. 1,3-Propanesultone was dissolved in acetone and then be added drop-wise into the flask over 8 h. The product was characterized by NMR and Mass spectrum. The crystal structure of 3-[N-(2-Methacroyloylethyl)-N,N-dimethylamino]propane sulfonate was investigated using X-ray diffraction and SHELXTL97 software and the result indicated that DMAPS crystallized in the orthorhombic system, space group P21/c with a = 14.6818(18), b = 7.1104(9), c = 14.9180(18) ?, V = 1548.5(3) ?3; Z = 4.
